Suppose a great white shark is trying to reach a point that is 1200 m deep and 1850 m west of its starting point assuming the shark swims in a straight line what distance in meters would the great white need to swim to reach its destination round your answer to the nearest meter

The distance = 2205 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The deep of the point = 1200 meters

∵ The point is 1850 meters west from the starting point

∵ The deep is ⊥ to the west

So to find the straight distance that the shark need to swim,

we will use Pythagoras theorem

∴ Distance = √(1200² + 1850²) = 2205 meters

sum= when you add is how much the whole amount is

distance= when you use angles and it means how far it goes

step-by-step explanation:

because they could drop even lower..
