Hi

Trevor launched a rocket in the soccer field, landing 22 feet above the ground in a tree

if the rocket and trevor are 25 feet apart, find distance between trevor and the tree

Let x represent distance between trevor and the tree

 Using the Pythagorean Theorem

  x^2 = 25^2 - 22^2

  x = sqrt(141)= 11.8743 ft
