Most players
play two shots around the water hazard and then have two putts to get their par
4. Zul needs a 3 on this hole to win the tournament, and he has not been
putting very well all day. He knows that he can usually hit a golf ball 250 m
and if he swings perfectly he can hit a ball 260 m.
Should he be
adventurous and try to hit across the water hazard? If he lands in the water he
will be penalised two strokes and will therefore lose the tournament. Or should
he take the safe path around the water hazard and try to win with his putter?
1 What is the scale of the
caddie’s diagram?
2 How far is it to the hole?
3 Should Zul play the shot
over the water?
4 Should Zul trust his
caddie’s quick, rough calculations, or is there a more accurate method for
calculating the required distance?

Huzi and Ataa's answer:
1. 1:2000
2. 260 m
3. It depends whether or not he hits perfectly. If he hits perfectly then he can still make it, but if he can't, it's better that he doesn't.
4.Using Pythagoras' theorem:
a(2) = b(2) + c(2)
a(2) = 170(2) + 190(2)
ariq and bagas' answer:
1) 1:2000
2) 260m
3) it depends on him, if his swing is perfect he might reach 260m. he should also calculate the wind.
4) a(2) = 170(2) + 190(2)
1) 1:2000
2) 13 x 2000 = 260 m
3) mr. zul can shot over the water but, mr. zul has to shot perfectly
4) yes, and with phytagoras
-Indah, Shoffa, and Tsamara-
Raissa and angela's answer
1) 8.5/9.5 = 170/190 --->8.5 :170m --> 8.5:17000cm --> 8.5/8.5= 17000/8.5= Goal = 1: 2000
2) 13 x 2000= 26.000
3) Mr zul can shot the ball over the water but he must swing it perfectly.
4) Yes there's another method that more accurate by using phytagoras.
Dika's answer
1) 1:2000
2) 26000
3) Yes,if he swings perfectly
4) a(2)=190(2)+170(2)
Fatimah and Pristna's Answers:
1. 1:2000
2. 260m
3. Yes! Since Mr. Zul wants t win the game, he should try to shoot with the least number of shots. Moreover, if he perfectl swings the bat, he can shoot the ball directly to the hall through the water, and if only he fails, at least the ball won't go into the water becaue normally, he can shoot 250m. And 250m already pass the water.
4. Well, since the diagram is rough... I think you'd better not to trust Mister ._.
