Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you drive straight north then turn and drive straight east, you have driven 2 sides of a right triangle.  The straight line distance from where you are to where you started from is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.  Use Pythagorean's Theorem to solve:

27^2+36^2=c^2 and

729+1296=c^2 and

2025=c^2

That means that length of the hypotenuse is 45.

45 miles is the distance.

WARRIOR [948]

If the order of the songs he plays doesn't matter, there are: \frac{12 * 11 * 10 *9 }{4!} = 495 ways to choose them.
