Question

23. Assuming it is possible to walk between locations in a straight line, how much longer is it to walk from the museum to the zoo than to walk from the museum to the park?​

Answer 1

The distance from Museum to Zoo is 0.74 units longer than the distance from Museum to park.

Assuming straight distance between the points :

The distance formula between two points is :

$d = \sqrt {\left( {x_2 - x_1 } \right)^2 + \left( {y_2 - y_1 } \right)^2 }$

Museum coordinate (-2, - 3)

Zoo coordinate (3, 3)

Park coordinate (-3, 4)

Distance from Museum to Zoo:

$d = \sqrt {\left( {3 - ( - 2)} \right)^2 + \left( {3 - ( - 3) } \right)^2 }$

$d \: = \sqrt{25 + 36} = \sqrt{61} = 7.81$

Distance from Museum to park :

$d = \sqrt {\left( { - 3 - ( - 2)} \right)^2 + \left( {4 - ( - 3) } \right)^2 }$

$d \: = \sqrt{ 1 + 49} = \sqrt{50} = 7.07$

$7.81 - 7.07 = 0.74$

This means that :

Distance from Museum to Zoo is 0.74 units more than the distance from Museum to park.
