PYQ - Find the distance
Question:
2
m.
A man goes \(54 \ m\) due east and then \(240 \ m\) due north. Find the distance of his current position from the starting point?
Answer
:
By the Pythagoras theorem,
Hypotenuse² = Opposite side² + Adjacent side²
Adjacent side² = Opposite side² + Hypotenuse²
Opposite side² = Hypotenuse² + Adjacent side²
.
The distance between the current position and to starting point is
\(m\).
