Hi!
We are given the information found in the picture below.
Note: The directions aren't correct, but the triangle works for this problem.
The "direct path" is the hypotenuse of this triangle.
To find this, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, where and
are 2 legs of the triangle, and
is the hypotenuse, aka the longest side of any triangle:
We know and
and want
Therefore, is approximately
