The motorist drove along the street a path equal to 400m, then turned right and drove along the lane for another 300m

The motorist drove along the street a path equal to 400m, then turned right and drove along the lane for another 300m. Assuming the movement is straightforward on each of the segments of the path, find the path of the car and its movement.

The entire movement path of a given vehicle can be represented as a right-angled triangle.

From the data we are given the values of l1 and l2.

First, let’s find the total movement of the car.

It is denoted by l and is the sum of l1 and l2.

300 + 400 = 700.

Now let’s find the total distance that the car has traveled.

It is found by the formula:

√ (l1² + l2²).

We translate into numbers:

√250000².

Now we count, and we get the following result:

500 meters.

This will be the correct answer to this problem.
