Kristen lives directly east of the park. the football field is directly south of the park. the library sits on the line formed between kristens home and the football the park and the football field could be drawn. the library is 2 miles from her home. the football field is 8 miles from the library.
how far is library from the park?

Library is 4 miles away from the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let P be the park.

Let F be the football field.

Let H be the Kristen's home.

Since Kristen's home is east of the park and the football field is south of the park.

So, it becomes a right angled triangle PFK.

FL = 8 miles

LK = 2 miles

Since PL is the altitude on the hypotenuse FK.

So, Length of PL i.e distance between library and park is given by

Hence, Library is 4 miles away from the park.

if you use photomath right away it will give you the answer not like this app that you have to wait for people.
