- Hello guys!My name is Siddartha. I nam late to my school today. Since it is an emergency I need to take the shortest possible route to school from my home. Please help me in doing so.
- Hello Siddartha! I'm Joshna. I am here to help you. Now tell me what is the usual route you take to school?
- My home is 4Km exact east to the post office. And my school is exact 3km North to the post office. So I travel a distance of 7km to reach my school daily.
- Oh no! You can directly travel from your home to school by travelling across hypotenuse I mean the shortest distance of a triangle.
- Explain in detail please..
- It's simple. Since your home and school are at exact east and north from post office. A right angle is formed at post office making the two roads of a right angled triangle.
- So, with this how can I find the shortest distance??
- Since it forms a right angled triangle we can find the hypotenuse of it which is the shortest distance. So, Using pythagoras theorem a2+b2=c2 where C is hypotenuse. Here a=4, b=3 so c= ((4x4)+(3x3))1/2=5Km
- So, that reduces my travelling distance by 2Km. Thank you Joshna for your help. Time to leave. Bye!! See you later.
