Two cars leave the same parking lot, with one heading north and the other heading east. After several minutes, the northbound car has traveled 1 mile, and the eastbound car has traveled 4 miles. Measured in a straight line, how far apart are the two cars? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.​

distance between two cars in a straight line = 4.12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The North and East make a right angle and if you make a straight line between the two cars you will make a right angled triangle.

Now we can use Pythagoras theorem to calculate the distance between two cars in a straight line.

p = 1

b = 4

h = ?

Using Pythagoras theorem

h² = p² + b²

h² = 1² + 4²

h² = 1 + 16

h² = 17

h = sqroot (17)

h = 4.12 miles
