Answer:

It's possible that you don't know “distance” and “displacement” are totally different. You may have never heard of displacement. I mention this because, the car travelled 13km. In other words, the change in the odometer on the car is 13km greater after the above mentioned travel.

Why it matters -

Displacement is the net change in straight line position from the starting point. If you go for a walk around a large open park, and don’t follow a prescribed path, only to decide you need to get back to your car in a hurry, you won't retrace your steps, but rather just walk directly to your car. You might have wandered 5 km in the field, but you may be only 100m from where you started. Because the question is trivially simple if truly asking for distance (the sum of the individual distances), it seems likely you wanted displacement which follows Pythagorean Theorem.

If you want distance, you drove 13km.

If you want displacement, you are about 9.85km from where you started.
