Answer:
<em>Jane traveled 8 miles farther then her trainer</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The Pythagora's Theorem</u>
In any right triangle, the square of the measure of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the legs. This can be expressed with the formula:

Where
c = Hypotenuse or largest side
a,b = Legs or shorter sides
Jane's path from the Health Club to the end of her route describes two sides of a right triangle of lengths a=16 miles and b=12 miles.
Her total distance traveled is 16 + 12 = 28 miles
Her trainer goes directly from the Health Club to meet her through the hypotenuse of the triangle formed in the path.
We can calculate the length of his route as:


c = 20 miles
The difference between their traveled lengths is 28 - 20 = 8 miles
Jane traveled 8 miles farther then her trainer
Answer: 55
Step-by-step explanation: There is one simple theorem we need to know in order to solve for this.
Triangle Angle-Sum Property: All three angles interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°.
Thus, we could label the points A, B, and C, and set up an algebraic expression.
Let A = 27, B = 98, and C = x.
A + B + C = 180°.
Substituting A, B, and C we get:
27 + 98 + x = 180°.
Adding, we get:
125 + x = 180°
Subtracting 125 by 180, we get:
x = 55°
Thus, the angle X is 55°.
We could have simply solved this by just doing 180 - 98 - 27 = 55 in the first place, but I wanted to show you how I got such results.
