Question

A man goes 7m due north and then 24m due east. How far is he from the starting point

Answer 1

Answer:

the distance between the initial point and the final point is 25 m

Step-by-step explanation:

pythagoras theorem

h²=p²+b²

h²=7²+24²

h²=49+576

h²=625

h=25

Answer 2

He is 25 m far from the starting point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance covered due north = 7 m

Distance covered due east = 24 m

so, the distance traveled from the starting point is given by

$H^2=P^2+B^2\\\\H^2=7^2+24^2\\\\H^2=49+576\\\\H^2=625\\\\H=\sqrt{625}\\\\H=25\ m$

Hence, He is 25 m far from the starting point.
