Question

Benjamina started her walk from the front door of her

ground floor apartment. She walked 6 meters to the
corner of the building and then turned the corner and
walked 10 meters to her friend's apartment. Identify the
difference between the distance she walked and her
displacement

Answer 1

11.66 meters

Explanation:The distance is the total distance she walked which is 16 meters adding the 6 meters to the corner and 10 meters to her friend's apartment. Her displacement is the distance from her original starting point so you set up a triangle with side lengths of 6 and 10 and solve for the hypotenuse which gives you a displacement of 11.66 meters.

Answer 2

11.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

should be somewhere around 11.6 because

a²+b²=c²

so 6²+10²=136

now find the square root √136

=11.6

11.6²=136
