The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Car moves 16 miles to north then 30 mile to east.
It forms a right angle triangle.
The straight line distance from starting to ending point represents hypotenuse.
To find the distance between starting and ending point.
Formula
By <em>Pythagoras theorem,</em>
h² = b²+l² where h is the hypotenuse, b is base and l is the another side.
Taking, b=16 and l=30 we get,
h² = 16²+30²
or, h =
or, h = = 34
Hence,
The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.
It already is a fraction though. I assume you mean to simplify it. You can simplify fraction by taking out the greatest common factor(that they share) in the denominator and numerator. In this case the denominator and numerator share the factor 5. So you if you divide the numerator and denominator by 5 you get 3/10 or the simplest form of the fraction.
The answer is
The answer is
