the two ships leave apart at the same time and one travel due to west at 18.4 km per hour and the other due to South at 27.6 km per hour calculate how far apart the two ships after 4 hours
After 4 hours, the ship travelling west travels 4 × 18.4 = 73.6 km, and the ship travelling south travels 4 × 27.6 = 110.4 km, as shown in the diagram below. = 132.7 km by Pythagoras. 1
