Answer: 19.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between you, Player A and Player B are in the form of a right angled triangle so using the Pythagorean Rule, we can find the distance between you and Player A.

c² = a² + b²

c = hypotenuse = Distance between you and player A

a = Length of triangle

b = Height of triangle

c² = 12² + 15²

c² = 144 + 225

c = √369

c = 19.2 ft
