From one child's house to the other, the walk along the city sidewalks is as follows: Proceed 450 feet from the first house to the nearest corner, turn right 90 degrees and proceed another 1050 feet. Are the children's houses within the 1320-foot range of one another.

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "B. Yes, as the distance formula indicates
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "C. Yes, because city blocks are much smaller than one quarter of a mile
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "D. No, because the diatance is greater than 1320 feet
