Answer 2

The given question is Abebe and almaz run 8 km east and then 5 km north.

Here, we have to find how far were they from their starting point.

It is said that both men travel through east and then to North.

this forms a triangle with base along east and height along North.

The base value is 8 km.

The height value is 5 km.

we have to find the value of hypotenuse.

the formula to find the value of hypotenuse is

square root of the addition of square of the base and height of the triangle.

therefore the final answer is √89 which is equal to 9.433 km
