Answer:
28.2 m
Explanation:
Applying,
Pythagoras theorem,
a² = b²+c²............... Equation 1
Where a = The distance from my starting point to my current point, b = distance walked due west, c = distance walked due south
From the question,
Given: b = 13 m, c = 25 m
Substitute these values into equation 1
a² = 13²+25²
a² = 169+625
a² = 794
a = √794
a = 28.18 m
a ≈ 28.2 m
