Answer 1

Answer:

${\huge{\underline{\bold{\green{Answer}}}}}$

If we draw the path, we would see that it creates a rightangled triangle whose one side = 12 km and hypotenuse = 15 km

${\huge{\underline{\bold{\red{hence,}}}}}$

the distance travelled towards east

$= \sqrt{ {15}^{2} - {12}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{225 - 144} \\ = \sqrt{81} \\ = 9km$

${\huge{\underline{\bold{\red{So,}}}}}$

he travelled 9 km towards east.

Answer 2

Answer:

15 + 12 = 27 km

Step-by-step explanation:

travels towards north = 12 km

distance from the iniatial position = 15 km

total distance covered by mohit towards east = 17 km.

Ans statement = mohit covered distance 17 km towards east.
