Question

Find the shortest distance from A to B in the diagram below.

Answer 1

Answer:

10 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a cuboid. We are asked to find the shortest distance from A to B is the given diagram.

We know that shortest distance from A to B will be equal to hypotenuse of right triangle with two legs 8 meters and 6 meters.

$AB^2=8^2+6^2$

$AB^2=64+36$

$AB^2=100$

Now, we will take square root of both sides of our given equation as:

$AB=\sqrt{100}$

$AB=10$

Therefore, the shortest distance from A to B is 10 cm.

Answer 2

Answer: 14 m

Step-by-step explanation:

8 m + 6 m = 14 m
