Brandon is playing hide-and-seek with Katy and Tony. Katy is hiding 63 feet south of Brandon, and Tony is hiding due east of Katy. If Brandon is 87 feet from Tony, how far apart are Katy and Tony?

60 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Using Pythagoras rule :

Hypotenus = sqrt(Adjacent^2 + opposite^2)

From the attached picture :

x² = 87^2 - 63^2

x^2 = 7569 - 3969

X^2 = 3600

Take the square root of both sides :

X = sqrt(3600)

X = 60 feets

Hence, Katy and Tony are 60 feets apart

step-by-step explanation:

center (1,3) with radius 6

step-by-step explanation:

we must complete the square to find the center and radius of the circle.

first make sure the x and y squared terms have 1 as their coefficients. we also make sure x and y terms together.

we now create space between the x and y terms with parenthesis.

we complete the square by taking the middle terms -2x and the -6y - divide each and square them.

we add the squares to both sides.

simplify.

and write the quadratics in factored form.

the center is (h,k) or (1,3). the radius is the square root of 36 which is 6.
