If S=station G, not shown on the map, is 5 miles east and 7 miles south of Station A, the approximate distance between Station E and Station G when traveling by subway will be gotten using the Pythagoras theorem.
EG² = 5²+7²
EG² = 25+49
EG² = 74
EG = √74
EG = 8.60 miles
<em>Hence the approximate distance between Station E and Station G when traveling by subway is 8.60miles</em>
