If a box is 120 centimeters long and 25 centimeters wide What is the length of the longest ski pole that could be packed to lie flat in the box?
DamoSongz
The longest ski pole to fit would lie diagonally. The length of the diagonal can be found by the pythagorean theorem.
d=sqrt(1202+252)
d ~= 122.58 cm

Is a length of a house key 5 centimeters what is the correct answer?
I just measured two housekeys...one was 5.3cm and the other was 5.5cm, so I suppose you could say a house key is approximately 5 centimeters in length.
A triangle has a perimeter 13. The two shorter sides have integer lengths equal to x and x plus 1. What could be the length of the other side?
The longest side can have a length of 6, 8, or 10 units. It cannot have an odd length. If the third side has to be the longest, the two shorter sides can only have integer lengths of 1 and 2 2 and 3 3 and 4
What could be the length of the third side of a triangle that has two sides of lengths 4 and 15?
For a triangle to exist, the sum of the two shorter sides must be longer than the longest side. If 15 is the longest side, then the other, missing, shorter side must be greater than 15 - 4 = 11. If the third, missing, side is the longest side, then it must be less than 15 + 4 = 19 So the third side is any length greater than 11 and less than 19. Examples include 12, 13, 15, 11.5, 18.5.
What could be the length of the third side of a triangle that has two sides of lengths 10 and 14?
To create a triangle, the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the third side.If the side of length 14 is the longest side then the missing side must be greater than 14 - 10 = 4If the missing side is the longest side then the missing side must be less than 10 + 14 = 24Thus any length that is greater than 4 and less than 24.Examples include: 16, 5, 8, 10.
How do you find the length of the circle if you know that the radius is 6 inches?
If you are referring to the diameter(the distance across the circle or the length of the longest line segment that is passing through the center of the circle), then the answer will be 12 in, since that the diameter is twice the length of the radius. But if you are talking about the circunference, you could use the formula C=2pi(r) or C=pi(d). Thus the answer will be 37.68 in. Please be more specific next time you ask...=)
What metric unit would be used to measure the length of a pencil?
You could use either centimeters or millimeters, but probably centimeters.
Can you use centimeters to measure a fish tank?
No. But you can measure it in cubic meters.

what- the perimeter of a rectangle is 100 centimeters. The length is twice the width.Which equation could you use to find the width of the rectangle in centimeters?
2(2x) +2x = 100
Which metric unit meters centimeters micron is best to express length of pencil?
centimeters is the best for measuring the length of a pencil. meters could be used but not as convenient. microns (1 millionth of a meter) is definitely too small.
Can you measure a paperclip with kilometers?
You could measure the length or width of it but you would have a decimal. You should be using centimeters.
