Answer:

24 km is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the distance between the two ships.

Hypotenuse side = x km

Adjacent side = 13.5 km

Perpendicular side = 20 km

by using Pythagoras theorem:

x²= 13.5²+ 20²=582.25

x=√ 582.25

х =24.129857024 km

Therefore, the distance between two ships to the nearest tenth place is, 24.1 km

At the end of the directions, it talks about parallel, perpendicular, or neither. When x=y, the lines are perpendicular and have infinite solutions. When they are parallel, there is no solution. You'll get an answer like 4=5. Neither means there is only one answer, and you will get one x and one y.
