Question

Three trees are planted. The direct distance from tree A to tree B is 200 feet. The direct distance between tree B and tree C is 300 feet. What is the direct distance between tree A and tree C?

Answer 1

Answer:

500ft

Step-by-step explanation:

DISTANCE BETWEEN TWO POINTS

We want to firstly assume that the the three trees lies on the same line

so tress A,B and C are on the same line

Given

The direct distance between A to B= 200 ft

The direct distance between B to C= 300 ft

hence A to C= 200+300= 500ft

let us do a graphical representation for better understanding

A----B-----------C

200ft    300ft

A---------- -----C

       500ft

A to C= 500ft

Answer 2

Answer:

Between 100 and 500

Step-by-step explanation:

A to B is 200

And b to c is 300

A to C =500

200-300=100

Answer = Between 100 and 500
