And:Distance 34m

Displacement:root 676 m

Answer 2

Answer:

She is 26 m away from the starting point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance covered in West = x = 10m

Distance covered in South = y = 24m

Now this forms a right angle triangle

So, let the distance from the initial point be z.

Then,

z² = x² + y²

   = 10² + 24²

   = 100 + 576

   = 676

So, z = √676 = 26m
