Question

leela walks 8m west and 15m north to reach the opposite corner of a rectangle field lovleen walked from the same point diagonally to the opposite corner. what is the distance walked by Lovleen? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer. => +17 or -17 = Hyp, But side can't be negative, So Hypotenuse is +17, Loveleen walked on the Hypotenuse, So eventually, He walked 17m

Answer 2

Question :-

leela walks 8m west and 15m north to reach the opposite corner of a rectangle field lovleen walked from the same point diagonally to the opposite corner. what is the distance walked by Lovleen?

___________________________________________

Answer :-

Since from the question it states that to find the distance travelled by lovleen which forms a hypotenuse in a Right angled Triangle .

• Hypotenuse ² = Altitude ²+ Base ²

• H² = 15²+8²

• H² = 225+64

• H² = 289

Hence H = 17m.

$\sf{ \blue{hence \: the \: distance = 17cm}{} }{}$

Hence the distance travelled by lovleen is 17m
