Sagot :

Answer:

Approx 447.21

Explanation:

This is basically pythagorean theorem

Your a value is going south so

a= 200

Your b value is going east which is 400 so

b= 400

[tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

[tex]200^{2} + 400^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

[tex]40000 + 160000 = c^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{200000} = c[/tex]

[tex]447.2135955 = c[/tex]

Therefore it will takes James approx 447.21 miles to fly home

Hope this helps (:
