From point A located on a highway (figure) one has to get by car as soon as possible to point B located in the field at a distance `l` from the highway. It is known that the car moves in the field `eta` times slower than on the highway. At what distance from point D one must turn off the highway?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`[(1)/(sqrt(eta^(2) - 1))]`
