The positions of the ships and beginning sort an exact triangle whose hypotenuse is one hundred fifty miles and the different 2 aspects are x miles each and each. for this reason, through Pythagorus theorem, x^2 + x^2 = one hundred fifty => x^2 = 75 => x = ?(75) = 5?3 miles. to sparkling up be conscious issues, represent the diverse given and unknown (to be got here upon) variables. Then commence translating the be conscious problem in the kind of mathematical equations and sparkling up the equations to discover the unknown.
