Answer:

His total run is approximately 3.37 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let F represents his starting point, C represents his position from where he went to east direction and H represents his position from where he went to left towards Florida Avenue.

Thus, according to the question,

FC = 0.75 miles,

CH = 1.2 miles,

By making the diagram,

∠FCH = 90°,

By Pythagoras theorem:

Hence, the total distance he covered = FC + CH + FH

= 0.75 + 1.2 + √2.0025

= 3.36509716981

≈ 3.37 miles.
