Answer:

[tex]\sqrt{61}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 6 units horizontally

y = 5 units vertically

Use the pythagorean theorem[tex]\sqrt{x^{2} + y^{2} } = L[/tex]

Plug x and y into the equation, and you will get [tex]\sqrt{61}[/tex] as the length.

Answer:

7.8 units (which is to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

We apply the Pythagorean Theorem here; the length of the line is the length of the hypotenuse of a triangle whose horizontal leg length is 6 and whose vertical leg length is 5 units.  This Theorem is expressed symbolically as

a^2 + b^2 = c^2.  In this particular case, a = 6, b = 5 and c is to be determined.  Performing the calculations, we get

6^2 + 5^2 = c^2, or:

36 + 25 = 61 = c^2

Taking the positive square root of both sides, we get c = √61 ) exactly,

which rounds off to 7.8 units (to the nearest tenth).

The length of the line is 7.8 units.
