The average height of the 5 person basketball team is 5.9. if 4 members of the team are all 5.8 how tall is the 5th player?

Hey!

The average height of 5 people is 5.9.

The total height is equal to:

4 people are each 5.8. Their total height is equal to:

Subtract the total height of 4 people with the total height of all 5 players:

step-by-step explanation:

first, you divide the triangle in two, tô form a retangle triangle. after, using pythagoream theorem:

18^2 = 14^2 + (x/2)^2

(x^2/4) + 196 = 324

x^2/4 = 324 - 196

x^2/4 = 128

x^2 = 512

x = √512

x = √2^9

x = 16√2 cm

i hope i you.
