- Pythagorean Theorem and Special Right TrianglesChoice E
Given that
$$ Distance\ between\ A\ and\ B=2000km $$
$$ Distance\ between\ A\ and\ C=1600km $$
$$ Distance\ between\ A\ and\ D=2500km $$
As given in figure above
$$ Distance\ between\ C\ and\ D=900km=300km\times3 $$
and
$$ Distance\ between\ B\ and\ C=1200km=400km\times3 $$
which are the multiples of 3. then distance between B and D will also be a multiple of 3
$$ \therefore Distance\ between\ B\ and\ D=500km\times3=1500km $$
So Choice E is correct.
