Answer:
36 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
His entire journey, represented with a diagram, is in the shape of a right angle triangle.
We need to first find the hypotenuse of the triangle, then, add all the sides together:
hyp² = opp² + adj²
hyp² = 9² + 12²
hyp² = 81 + 144 = 225
Find the square root of both sides:
hyp = 15 miles
Therefore, adding the three sides together:
Total distance traveled = 9 + 12 + 15
Total distance traveled = 36 miles
He would ride 36 miles altogether.
