Question

May I please get help with this. I have tried multiple times but still could not get the correct or at least accurate answer.I also need to round my answer to the nearest hundredth to get the correct answer

Answer 1

Counting the squares, point B is 2 units to the right and 5 units up from point A. This describes a right triangle, and we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of AB.

`\begin{gathered} AB^2=2^2+5^2 \\ AB^2=4+25 \\ AB^2=29 \\ AB=\sqrt[]{29} \\ AB=5.38516480713\ldots \\ AB\approx5.39 \end{gathered}`

The length of AB is approximately 5.39.
