Use the image to answer the question.
A simple roadmap focuses on the interstate highways connecting Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio, forming a triangle. Dallas-Fort Worth is at the top center of the map. The road leading from Dallas-Fort Worth to Houston in a southeasterly direction is labeled Route 45. The road leading from Houston to San Antonio in a westerly direction is labeled Route 10. The road leading from San Antonio to Dallas-Fort Worth in a northeasterly direction is labeled Route 35. A scale shows 80 miles and 80 kilometers.
Employ your understanding of the use of a graphic map scale to determine the approximate distance between San Antonio and Houston within 10 miles (you may want to use a ruler).
