Question

A squirrel is perched in a tree 50 feet above sea level. Directly below the squirrel, a bird is flying 17 feet above sea level. Directly below the bird is a trout, swimming 23 feet below seal level.how far apart are the squirrel and bird?

Answer 1

We can do the following operation_

17-50 = -33 ft

And that represent the distance between te heron and the squirrel

And since the actual height is -23 ft

Then the answer would be given by:

17 -(-23) = 40 ft

The distance from the squirrel and the bird is 40 ft
