Question

Bills swimming pool is 27 yards by 36 yards he swam from one corner of the pool to the opposite corner how far did bill swim

Answer 1

Answer:

45 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

if he swam from one corner to another then he travelled along the diagonal

by Pythagoras theorem a²+b² = c²

here a = 27, b = 36, c = diagonal

27²+36² = c²

c =√(729+1296)

c = √2025

c = 45 yards
