13. A ski lift forms a right triangle, as shown. Use the Pythagorean Theorem

(Theorem 9.1) to approximate the horizontal distance traveled by a person

riding the ski lift. Round your answer to the nearest whole foot.

5750 ft

1170 ft

This is an incomplete question, the image is shown below.

Answer : The horizontal distance traveled by a person is, 5630 ft

Step-by-step explanation :

To calculate the horizontal distance traveled by a person  we are using Pythagoras theorem.

Using Pythagoras theorem:

Given:

Hypotenuse = 5750 ft

Perpendicular = 1170 ft

Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of base.

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by a person is, 5630 ft

17

step-by-step explanation:

51/3=17

thus 17 is your answer.
