Imagine you need to purchase a laptop bag for your 14 -inch laptop. The only problem is you don't have your laptop with you, and it sure would be frustrating to buy a bag only to realize that your laptop doesn't quite fit. You recall laptop computers are measured according to the diagonals of their screens, and you remember your 14 -inch laptop has a screen that is 8 inches tall. How wide is the screen? Exact Answer (written as a simpified radical): □ in. Approximate (decimal) Answer: □ in. Give your approximate answer accurate to 2 decimal places.

POSSIBLE POINTS A diagram demonstrates the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that for a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c,a2+b2=c2. How are the squares in the diagram related to the equation?
The number of unit squares in each square is equal to the adjacent side length. The square of the sum of the legs equals the square of the hypotenuse.
The square shapes represent the squares of the side lengths, and the sum of the areas of the two smaller squares equals the area of the larger square.
The squares represent the side lengths of the triangle. The sum of the side lengths of the legs equals the length of the hypotenuse.
The square of the sum of the lengths of the sides of the triangle equals the number of unit squares in all the squares.
The Varners live on a corner lot. Often, children cut across their lot to save walking distance. The diagram to the right represents the corner lot. The children's path is represented by a dashed line. Approximate the walking distance that is saved by cutting across their property instead of walking around the lot.
