Answer :
21.6
Explanation :
Use Pythagorean theorem to solve it a^2+b^2=c^2

Answer:

21.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If you draw, it'll be a right triangle with legs 12 miles and 18 miles, we need to find the hypotenuse.

So,

[tex] \sqrt{ {12}^{2} + 18^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{144 + 324} [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{468} [/tex]

[tex] = 6\sqrt{13} [/tex]

6√13 ≈ 21.6
