Answer:
10 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The attached grid
Required
The distance between Oden and Lundy
See attachment for modified grid
From the newly attached grid, we have:
[tex]d^2 = 6^2 + 8^2[/tex] ---- Pythagoras theorem
This gives:
[tex]d^2 = 36 + 64[/tex]
[tex]d^2 = 100[/tex]
Take positive square roots of both sides
[tex]d = \sqrt{100[/tex]
[tex]d = 10[/tex]
Hence, the distance is 10 miles
