Question 949979
The lengths of his walk and the directions
traveled form a 3 - 4 - 5 right triangle
-------------------
You can tell this because:
{{{ 3/4 = 6/8 }}} with a right angle
between the sides
-------------------
That means the distance traveled is
not {{{ 5 }}}, but {{{ 2*5 = 10 }}} yds
-------------------
check:
{{{ 6^2 + 8^2 = 10^2 }}}
{{{ 36 + 64 = 100 }}}
{{{ 100 = 100 }}}
OK
