rides her bicycle due east at 12 kilometers per hour. rides his bicycle due north at 16 kilometers per hour. if they left from the same point at the same time, how far apart will they be aafter 2 hours

Respuesta :

Answer:

40 km

Step-by-step explanation:

by using the formula of distance, speed×time

A=12×2=24

B=16×2=32

to find the distance between these two people we will use theorem pythagoras as one goes to north and another one goes to the east (it make a shape of triangle)

D=

[tex] \sqrt{(24) { }^{2} + (32) {}^{2} } [/tex]

D=40km
