Mr. Chong and your mom just robbed a bank and are making their getaway! Mr. Chong runs 10 miles north, while yomama sprints 14 miles southeast at an angle of 120° from Mr. Chong.

To escape the cops, they need to quickly figure out how far apart they are from each other. How far is the distance between yo mama and Mr. Chong?

10^2+14^2-2*10*14*cos(120)=b^2

20.88 Miles apart
