Answer 1

The distance between Reshma and Mandip is
`19.4` meters

Explanation:

The three girls are standing on the circumference of the circle

Circumference of the circle
`= 2\pi r`

Substituting the given values we get -

`= 2 * 3.14 * 5 = 31.4` meters

Given

distance between Reshma and Salma is
`6` m

distance between Salma and Mandip is
`6` m

distance between Reshma and Mandip

`= 31.4 -6 -6 \\= 31.4 -12\\= 19.4`
