<h3>Answer: Approximately 9.219544 miles</h3>
=====================================================
Explanation:
See the diagram below
We have a right triangle with legs of 6 and x. The hypotenuse is 11. Use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x
a^2+b^2 = c^2
x^2+6^2 = 11^2
x^2 + 36 = 121
x^2 = 121-36
x^2 = 85
x = sqrt(85) is the exact distance
x = 9.219544 is the approximate distance
units are in miles
