streets go 1/5 ofamile north and south. avenuses 1/6 east and west. whats the distance of 6st/20ave?11st/17ave

Question

round to the hundreths place

Answer 1

North and south - from 6th street to 11th street is 5 blocks.
5*1/5=1 mile north and south.

East and west - from 20th avenue to 17th avenue is 3 blocks.
3*1/6=1/2 mile east and west.

(northsouth side of triangle)^2 + (eastwest side of triangle)^2= (distance between the points)^2
1^2 + (1/2)^2 = x^2
1 + 1/4 = x^2
5/4=x^2
sqrt 5/2 = x = 1.12 miles

Answer 2

just do the math/
