Answer:
Stacy's house is 8 kilometres from regan's house
Step-by-step explanation:
if we make diagram of given question we see that distance between Frank's house and regan's house is hypotenuse
distance between Stacy's house and Frank's house is base
distance between Stacy's house and regan's house is perpendicular
so hypotenuse=10km
base=6km
let perpendicular=x
using traingle law,
(h)2=b2+P2
(10)2=(6)2+P2
100=36+P2
P2=64
p=8
so distance between Stacy's house and regan's house is 8km
