Description
Let's denote:
- J as the location of Jamil's house,
- R as the location of Rehana's house,
- A as the location of Ajit's house, and
- H as the location of John's house.
Given:
- Jamil lives 4 kilometers due west of Rehana's house.
- Ajit lives 6 kilometers due north of Rehana's house and 4 kilometers due west of John's house.
The distance from Rehana's house to Ajit's house is 6 kilometers north, and then 4 kilometers west, forming a right triangle.
Now, applying the Pythagorean theorem.
So, the straight-line distance from Jamil's house to John's house is 10 kilometers.
