The spider's short-cut (solution)



The shortest distance between two points is a straight line.
You need to find the distance AB on the diagram.
One way to do this is to make a scale drawing.

Another way is to use Pythagoras' rule.
This gives AB² = 6² + 3² = 45.
Then           AB = Ö45
                           = 6.7 inches to 1 decimal place.
