Ответ:
Shontal is at a distance of 13 meters from the launching point
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Given,
Distance of Travis from the launching point = 12 meters
Distance of Shontal from the launching point = 9 meters
Step 2 :
Let A represent the launching point
B represent the point above the launching point at which the balloon is floating.
C represent the point where Shontal stands on the ground.
The angle made by AB with BC is 90 degrees because the balloon is directly above the launching point
Step 3:
So we have a right angle triangle here, with
AB = 12
BC = 9 and angle ABC = 90 degrees
We need to find out length of AC
Using the theorem of Pythagoras,
AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = 12² + 9² = 144 + 25 = 169 = 13
Step 4 :
Answer :
Shontal stands at a distance of 13 meters from the launching point
