Joe is walking from a point 100 feet west of a hibernating bear. He walks directly to a point 75 feet east and 80 feet north of the bear. How close does he come to the bear on his walk?

Respuesta :

(75)^2 + (80)^2 = C^2

Let C = how close he came to the bear on his walk.

Solve for C. Do not forget to take the square root on both sides. Take it from here.
