Question

Plz solve and explain work this has to do with the Pythagorean theorem :)

Answer 1

258.07 miles apart

Explanation:

After 3 hours, 1st train is 70 *3 =210 miles North. The 2nd train will be 50*3 =150 miles East.

The distance apart is sqrt(210^2 +150^2)

= SQRT(44100+22500)

= 258.07 miles apart
