Answer:

The direct path is 10 miles long from gayle's house to the store

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that due to construction, the direct route is closed and gayle must travel 6 miles east and then 8 miles north in order to get to the store.

So, refer the attached figure

So, he travels 6 miles east i.e. AB = 6 miles

Then he travels 8 miles north i.e. BC = 8 miles

So we are supposed to find how long is the direct path from gayle's house to the store i.e.AC

So, to find Ac we will use Pythagoras theorem :

Hypotenuse^2=Perpendicular^2+Base^2

AC^2=AB^2+BC^2

AC^2=6^2+8^2

AC^2=36+64

AC^2=100

AC=\sqrt{100}

AC=10

Hence the direct path is 10 miles long from gayle's house to the store
