| Dolores and Marianne are playing Pokemon Go. They start off in the same spot and walk in perpendicular directions to chase their Pokemon. Figure A shows their paths and the locations where they each catch a Pokemon. ( Note: The small squares in the grid have side lengths of one yard and areas of 1 square yard.) |
|
| Figure A | |
| The red vertical line represents the path Dolores walked. How far did Dolores walk before she caught a Pokemon? yards | |
| The blue horizontal line represents the path Marianne walked. How far did Marianne walk before she caught a Pokemon? yards | |
| What is the distance between the spot where Marianne caught a Pokemon and the spot where Dolores caught a Pokemon? yards Round your result to two decimal places as needed. | |
