Pam is taking a train from the town of rome to the town of florence. rome is located 40 miles due west of the town of paris. florence is 35 miles east, and 55 miles north of rome. on her trip, how close does pam get to paris?

Pan is closest to Paris when she gets to Florence when she is 35 miles away

Step-by-step explanation:

With Paris at (0,0), Rome is 40miles west which is on the negative x axis.

Florence is 35 miles closer (east to Paris) so we have -45 + 35 = -10

and 55 mikes north of Rome which is on the positive y-axis. So Florence is at point (-10,55)

The distance between the two points Florence and Paris is √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

x1 = 0, y1 = 0

x2 = -10, y2 = 55

So we have

√(-10-0)^2 + (55-0)^2

= √(-10)^2 + (55)^2

= √ 100 + 3025

= √3125

= 55.9 mikes from Paris

Pam is closest to Paris when she gets to Florence when she is 35 miles away

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
