hinano and marko agree to meet at the state fair. hinano arrives at the entrance. marko gives hinano two - part instructions explaining how to find him. his instructions use three reference points (including her starting point), two directions, and two approximate distances. the instructions describe the shortest walking distance between them. study the diagram and then answer the questions.

1. what instructions do you think marko gave hinano?

Explanation:

First, identify Hinano's starting point (near the Entrance), then use the map's scale (200m per side of the square) and compass (north is up). The path is the shortest two-segment route: first, use the Entrance as a reference, then a second reference point, with clear directions and distances matching the map's scale.

Answer:

1. Start at your current spot near the Entrance. Walk 100m North to the Ticket Booth (this is the first reference point after the Entrance).
2. From the Ticket Booth, walk 100m East and then 100m North to reach my location near the Rides area.

Alternatively, a simplified two-part instruction using the Entrance and Outdoor Stage as references:

1. From the Entrance, walk 100m North to the Outdoor Stage.
2. From the Outdoor Stage, walk 100m East to meet me near the Rides.
