Answer:

$4,160,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the length of the new road in km using Pythagorean Theorem.

According to Pythagorean Theorem:

c² = a² + b²,

Where, c is the longest leg, which is the hypotenuse, a and b are the 2 other legs of the ∆.

Since we are calculating the lenght in km, convert each lenght of the two legs of the ∆ into km.

1 km = 1,000 m

10,000 m = 10 km

24,000 m = 24 km

c² = 24² + 10²

c² = 576 + 100

c² = 676

c = √676

c = 26 km

Lenght of the new road = 26 km

If cost of construction is $160,000 per kilometer, therefore, cost of constructing 26 km road = 160,000*26 = $4,160,000
