Question

A man goes 18m due east and then 24m due north he is away from starting point by ...??​

Answer 1

you should use Pythagoras theorem in this types of conditions

Substitute 24 for perpendicular and 18 for base. Taking square root on both sides. Therefore, the distance of his current position from the starting point is 30m.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem

AC2 = AB2 + BC2 = (18)2 + (24)2 = 324 + 576 = 900

AC = √(900) = 30 m

∴ The distance from the starting point is 30 m.
