Question

Two cars leave the park at the same time one travels north at a speed of 50 km an hour for two hours the second car travels west at a speed of 80 km an hour for two hours after the two hours how far apart are the two cars

Answer 1

50 km/hr * 2hr = 100km

80 km/hr * 2hr = 160km

using pythagorean theorem: x = sqrt((a^2)+(b^2))

x = sqrt ((100^2) + (160^2)

x = 188.67 km
