Direction sense

One can make use of the Pythagorean Theorem for right triangles.

Let the length of the side (of the triangle) be $5$ meters and the length of the base (of the triangle) be $12$ meters.

Required distance

$=\sqrt{12^{2}+5^{2}}$

$=\sqrt{169}=\boxed{13}$ .

You didn't specify what units to express our answer in... I could say 1300 centimeters and it should also be correct.

Doesn't everyone know their Pythagorean Triples? ;)

apply the PYTHAGOREAN theorem..

x=sqrt(12^2+5^2)

Using Pythagoras theorem, square root of 12^2 + 5^2 gives 13

It is displacement, not distance

It can solve by using simple vector equation I.e ( resultant vector )

Pythagoras Theolem

I'm just wondering if there's a specific name for this one. I remember calling the 3-4-5 right triangle combination an Egyptian triangle

Pythagorean theorem

it makes a shape of triangle. √12²+25²=13

Pythagoras theorm

This problem is according to the Pythagoras theorem,

bad question. why assume park did not extend further south. distance could have been 12m assuming ll lines and park starting min of 5m south of walkers intersect.

Simple use of Pythagoras's theorem .

a^2+b^2=c^2 5^2+12^2=c^2 25+144=c^2 169=c^2 13

Just use Pythagorean Theorem. It's very easy!

Required distance is radical of 144+25 which is equal to 13 meter

Write a solution. 13

The Pythagorean theorem, which shows $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$

So $12^{2} + 5^{2} = 144 + 25 = 169$ , then the square root of $169$ is $\boxed{13}$

Pythagoras theorem

hypotenuse

Pythagoras theorem

This is solved using the Pythagoras Theorem. So (5 squared) + (12 squared)= Distance from the park squared. 25+144=169. The square root of 169 is 13. So 13 is the answer.

use phythagorean theorem, c2=a2+b2 , 0r c=square root of a2+b2

i try physics to solve this problems using the resultant vector .. and it's effective.

Pythagorean Theorem. Formula: c^2 = b^2 + a^2 [where c is the hypotenuse, and b and a are the legs]

Solution:

c^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

c^2 = 25 + 144

c^2 = 169

/sqrt c^2 = /sqrt 169

c = 13

It is triangle with two sides of 5 and 12 meters and 90 degree angle.by pythogorous calculations,we get distance of park from his house 13 Meters ans.

simple pythagoras theorem.

/sqrt{25+144} = 13

It's just about using squares and roots
