A diver swims 20 m under water to the anchor of a buoy that is 10 m below the surface of the water. On the surface how far is the buoy located from the place where the diver started?

Respuesta :

Answer:

There the buoy is 17.3 m from the place where the diver started.

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + b² =c²

⇒ 10² + b² = 20²

⇒ 100 + b² = 400

⇒ b² = 400 - 100

⇒ b²= 300

⇒ b = [tex]\sqrt{300}[/tex]

⇒ b = 17.3 m

There the buoy is 17.3 m from the place where the diver started.
