Reyna's house is 12 blocks due west of the school. Shaquille's house is 5 blocks due north of the school. Shaquille walks to Reyna's house every morning and then they walk to school together. What is the shortest distance Shaquille could walk on his way to school when he walks with Reyna?

The shortest distance that Shaquille could walk on his way to school when he walks with Reyna is = 25 blocks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reyna's house is 12 blocks due west of the school. Shaquille's house is 5 blocks due north of the school.

So, Reyna's house, the school, and the Shaquille's house form a right triangle and the shortest distance from Shaquille's house to Reyna's house is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

So, the shortest distance that Shaquille could walk on his way to school when he walks with Reyna is = blocks. (Answer)

the anwser is d) 75°

step-by-step explanation:

according to the triangle sum theorem, all the angles in a triangle must add up to 180 degrees. if we know one angle is already 90, we do 180-90=90. the other 2 angles must add up to 90, exactly.
