Two model planes take off from the same spot. The first plane travels (side b) = 19 ft due west before landing, and the second plane travels (side c) = 15 ft d

Question

Can you please help me, im so confused on what to do!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Answer 1

well which direction does the second plane fly.

 

 If it flies due east in the opposite direction of the first plane, then they are 34 ft apart.

 

 If it flies due north or south, the the pythagorean rule says they are sqrt( 15*15 + 19*19) or just over 75 feet apart

 

As the measure of these distances are in feet, that is not very far apart.
