If you sketch the path of the boat, you will form a right triangle towards the port. The distance from the port to the present position is the hypotenuse since it is opposite from the right angle formed by the 12 miles north and 5 miles east movement. Since it is a right triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve the hypotenuse.

Solution:

h² = o² + a²
h² = 12² + 5²
h² = 144 + 25
h² = 169
√h² = √169
h= 13

The present distance of the boat from the port is 13 miles.

Convert to the product of multiplication<br>a^2-b^2-4b-4
kirill [66]

a^2-b^2-4b-4 in form of multiplication is  (a-b)(a+b)-4(b+1) .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We know that factors are the numbers that are being multiplied together . As 6532*7 = 45724 .Here 6532 & 7 are the factors and 45724 is product of the factors .

Here , we need to convert to the product of multiplication

a^2-b^2-4b-4 or , a^2-b^2-4b-4 :

⇒  a^2-b^2-4b-4

We know by identity that , p^2-q^2 = (p-q)(p+q)

⇒  (a-b)(a+b)-4b-4

Taking common term out as -4 :

⇒  (a-b)(a+b)-4(b+1)

Therefore  , a^2-b^2-4b-4 in form of multiplication is  (a-b)(a+b)-4(b+1) .
