<h3>What is a Pythagoras theorem?</h3>The square of the longest side is equal to the square of the sum of the othersides.
Before we can calculate the total distance, we will need to get the hypotenuse on both sides using the Pythagoras theorem as shown:
H^2= 12^2 + 9^2
H² = 144 + 81
H² = 225
H = 15
For the other hypotenuse
h² = 12² + 5²
h² = 144 + 25
h² = 169
h = 13 mils
The total distance = 5 + 15 + 9 + 13
The total distance = 42 miles
