Answer: 11.18 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

      They give us all the information we need to solve. We will be using the Pythagorean theorem to help us solve this question.

    Given:

a² + b² = c²

    Substitue values:

5² + 10² = c²

    Square values:

25 + 100 = c²

    Addition:

125 = c²

    Square root both sides:

[tex]\sqrt{125}[/tex] = c

    Square root and round at hundredths place:

c ≈ 11.18 mi

Answer:

11.18 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We see a right triangle here

and a² + b² = c² shows the relationship between all sides of the triangle

c is the hypotenuse and also the distance between the planes.

Let's plug in the values 5 and 10 in the equation to find c

(5)² + (10)² = c²

Solve!

25 + 100 = c²

125 = c²

find the square root of 125

√125 = √c²

c ≈ 11.18 miles
