Question

Anna, Ben, Chetan and Deepak are standing on a playground at positions A, B, C and D respectively as shown in the figure given below. The distance between Annaand Chetan is 25 m, the distance between Ben and Chetan is 28 m and the distance between Anna and Deepak is 15 m. How far is Anna standing away from Ben?

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is 53m

Step-by-step explanation:

because anna and chetan are standing in a distance of 25m and chetan is standing 28 m away from Ben so when we add we 53m

Answer 2

Given: Anna, Ben, Chetan and Deepak are standing on a playground at positions A, B, C and D respectively as shown in the figure given below. The distance between Annaand Chetan is 25 m, the distance between Ben and Chetan is 28 m and the distance between Anna and Deepak is 15 m.

To find: How far is Anna standing away from Ben.

Solution:

First, the distance between Chetan and Deepak is to be found and it can be calculated using the Pythagoras Theorem as follows.

$CD = \sqrt{AC^{2} - AD^{2}}$

      $= \sqrt{625 - 225}$

      $= 20 m$

The distance between Ben and Chetan is given as 28 m and the distance between Chetan and Deepak is calculated as 20 m. So, the distance between Ben and Deepak is calculated as follows.

$28 - 20 = 8 m$

Now, in order to calculate the distance between Anna and Ben, the following calculations using the Pythagoras theorem are to be made.

$AB = \sqrt{15^{2} + 8^{2}}$

      $= 17 m$

Therefore, Anna standing 17 m away from Ben.
