Answer:
26 miles farther from her trainer
Step-by-step explanation:
She starts her journey at health club,
Ran 24 miles south and then 10 miles west.
The distance between her end point and her trainer who was at health club can be calculated using pythagorean theorem.
X² = y² + z²
X = her end point
Z = distance between health club 24 miles south. = 24miles
Y = 10 miles distance from the 24 miles south. = 10 miles.
(See attachment for better illustration.)
X² = 24² + 10²
X² = 576 + 100
X² = 676
X = √(676)
X = 26 miles
Jane was 26 miles farther from her trainer
