okkkkkk

Answer 2

Answer:

• A - Starting point.

• B - Position of the man 18m due to East of A.

• C - position of the man 24m due to North of B.

• AC - Distance of the man from the starting point A.

In the right angle ∆ ABC,

AB = 18m, BC = 24m.

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

= 18^2 + 24^2

= 324 + 576 = 900

AC = √900 = 30m

∴ Distance of the man's current position from the starting point A = 30m.
