Answer:

6.5 miles far from the bank.

Step-by-step explanation:

→ AC = 3.9 miles (perpendicular)

→ BC = 5.2 miles (base)

→ AB = x (hypotenuse)

By using Pythagoras theorem the length of AB will be,

→ (Hypotenuse)²=(Perpendicular)²+(Base)²

→ AB² = AC² + BC²

→ AB² = (3.9)² + (5.2)²

→ AB² = 15.21 + 27.04

→ AB = √(42.25)

→ [ AB = 6.5 ]

Hence, friend's house is 6.5 miles away.
