Verified answer

Answer:

GIVEN

Ravi drives 39km towards east and then 15km towards north.

TO FIND

Find the distance between the starting point and the final position.

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the above problem as follows;

Let the starting point be 'O'.

Distance travelled due East = OA = 39 km

Distance travelled due North = AB = 15 km

Distance between final and initial point = OB

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔOAB

OB² = OA² + AB²

OB² = 39² + 15²

OB² = 1746

OB = √1746 = 41.78 km

Hence, The answer is 41.78 km

Answer:

41.78

Step-by-step explanation:

BY P.G.T

H²=P²+B²

X²=15²+39²

X²=225+1521

X²=1746

THEN FINDING OUT THE ROUTE OF 1746

=41.78

:- Hence, the answer is 41.78
