An airplane lands at an airport 80 miles west and 30 miles north of where it took off. how far apart are the airports.

85.44 miles apart

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question;

The airplane flew 80 miles west and 30 miles north

We are supposed to determine how far apart are the airports.

The shortest distance will be the displacement from the initial point.We are going to use the Pythagoras theorem;a² + b² = c² , where a and b are the legs of a right angled triangle and c is the hypotenuse.Therefore, in this case; our legs will be 30 miles and 80 miles, so we need to determine the hypotenuse;

That is;

c² = 80² + 30²

    = 6400 + 900

    = 7300

c = √7300

  = 85.44

Thus, the airports are 85.44 miles apart

The range would be 13 because you’re finding the difference
