Solution : Firstly, we will draw the diagram as per the given instructions – Now, we have to find the distance between Point A to Point C.
Here, A is the starting point and C is the finishing point. We have to find the distance between AC. By using, the Pythagorean theorem; (AB) 2 + (BC) 2 = (AC) 2 (60) 2 + (80) 2 = (AC) 2 3600 + 6400 = (AC) 2 10000 = (AC) 2 Now, squaring on both sides 100 = AC
So, the distance between his home and the starting point is 100 m. Hence, the first option is correct.
