उत्तर
It is given that, Pranali and Prasad have same speed.
Thus, they cover same distance in 2 hours.
i.e. OA = OB
Let the speed be x km per hour.
According to Pythagoras theorem,
In ∆AOB
\[{AB}^2 = {AO}^2 + {OB}^2 \]
\[ \Rightarrow \left( 15\sqrt{2} \right)^2 = {AO}^2 + {OA}^2 \]
\[ \Rightarrow 450 = 2 {AO}^2 \]
\[ \Rightarrow {AO}^2 = \frac{450}{2}\]
\[ \Rightarrow {AO}^2 = 225\]
\[ \Rightarrow AO = 15 km\]
\[ \Rightarrow BO = 15 km\]
\[\text{Speed} = \frac{Distance}{Time}\]
\[ = \frac{15}{2}\]
\[ = 7 . 5 \text{km per hour}\]
