A rectangle is a four sided shape with 4 perpendicular angles. It has two pairs of parallel sides which are equal in distance: width and length. A diagonal can be drawn between opposite corners that splits the triangle into two equal right triangles. The distance of this diagonal is found using the Pythagorean Theorem a² + b² = c². In the rectangle a = 11 and b = 15. Substitute these values and simplify using a square root operation.
You need to divide 480 by 10. Then multiply the answer which is 48 miles per day. Then take the 48 times 8 for the next 8 days. Then add the answer of that which is 384 and add it to 480.
