Given :
Trina and Jessie went on a vacation to Hawaii. Trina went scuba diving and reached an elevation of −85.6 meters, which is below sea level.
Jessie went hang-gliding and reached an altitude of 87.9 meters, which is above sea level.
To Find :
The distance between them.
Solution :
Distance between them is :
[tex]D=87.9-(-85.6)\ m\\\\D = 173.5\ m[/tex]
Therefore, maximum distance between them is 173.5 m.
Hence, this is the required solution.
