I need help ASAP . This is due tomorrow and I don't understand how to do this. Mr.kurdzo wants to store a 12foot long pipe in a tool closet that is 6 feet long, 6 feet wide, and 8 feet high.will it fit ?
8^2 + 6^2 = 100^(1/2) = 10 The 12 foot pipe will not fit because according to the Pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2) c, which would be line d in this case, would be 10 feet long.
