Answer 1

40.80 km

Explanation:

Given: AP (opposite)= 33 km

PB(adjacent)= 24 km

Now, finding the value of AB (hypotenous)

Using the pythagorean theoram to solve it.

`AB^(2) = AP^(2) + PB^(2)`

⇒
`AB^(2) = 33^(2) + 24^(2)`

⇒
`AB^(2) = 1089+576`

⇒
`AB^(2) = 1665`

Taking square root on both side, remember;
`\sqrt{x^(2) } = x`

⇒
`AB= √(1665)`

∴ AB= 40.80 km
