At noon, ship A passes 7 km west of a harbour, heading due south at 10 km/h. At 9 a.m., ship B had left the harbour, sailing due south at 4 km/h. Give an expression for d, the distance between the two ships, in terms of t, the number of hours after noon.


I can't figure this out for the life of me. I know it needs Pythagorean theorem but i can't figure it out. Please help? Its due very soon.
