Answer:

37.403

Step-by-step explanation:

a2 + b2 = c2

(The 2 is squared)

(35)2 + (12)2 = c2

1225 + 144 = c2

c = 37.403

Answer:

37 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose S represents the Swing, S' represents the slide and B represents the Bench,

According to the diagram,

In triangle SS'B,

SS' = 35 feet,

S'B = 12 feet,

Also, ∠SS'B = 90°,

Thus, by the Pythagorean theorem,

[tex]SB^2 = S'S^2 + S'B^2[/tex]

[tex]=35^2+12^2[/tex]

[tex]=1225 + 144[/tex]

[tex]=1369[/tex]

[tex]\implies SB = 37[/tex]

Hence, the distance from the bench to the swings is 37 feet.
