The center height of this tent is 8.1 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Shared side = x feet
Side length = 4 feet
Hypotenuse = 9 feet
As both the triangles are right angled, we will used pythagoras theorem to find the length of shared side.
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\(4)^2+(x)^2=(9)^2\\16+x^2=81\\x^2=81-16\\x^2=65\\[/tex]
Taking square root on both sides
[tex]\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{65}\\x=8.06[/tex]
Rounding off to nearest tenth
x = 8.1 feet
The center height of this tent is 8.1 feet
