Correct Answer: North - West
Explanation:
Let us assume her house is situated at point A.
Draw a figure of movement of Radhika.
Correct Answer: 15 KM
Explanation:
Draw the figure of movement with the help of given below direction graph.
A person starts from a point A and travels 3 km East - Wards to B. Then he turns left and travels 9 km to reach C.
He again turns left and travels 15 km and reaches his destination D.
The movements of the person are as shown in Figure
Clearly, AB = 3 km, BC = 3AB = (3 × 3) km = 9 km, CD = 5AB = (5 × 3) km = 15 km,
Draw AE ? CD.
Then, CE = AB = 3 km
AE = BC = 9 km
DE = (CD ? CE) = (15 ? 3) km = 12 km.
In triangle AED, AD2 = AE2 + DE2
or AD2 = 92 + 122
or AD2 = 81+ 144
or AD2 = 225
or AD2 = 152
AD = 15
Required distance = AD = 15 km
Correct Answer: South - East
Explanation:
The movements of Amit are as shown in Fig (P to Q, Q to R and R to S).
Clearly, his final position is S which is to the South ? East from the starting point P.
Correct Answer: 8 Ft.
Explanation:
The movements of Maya from T to R are as shown in Figure.
Distance between T and R = TR = TU + UR = TU + PW + QV = ( 4 + 3 + 1) ft = 8 ft.
Correct Answer: 20 meters South
Explanation:
The movements of Sanjeev from A to F are as shown in Figure Clearly,
Sanjeev's distance from starting point A
= AF = (AB + BF) = AB + ( BE ? EF ) = AB + (CD ? EF)
= [10 + (20 ? 10)] m = (10 + 10) m = 20 m.
Also, F lies to the South of A. So, Sanjeev is 20 meters to the south of his starting point.
Correct Answer: 5 KM
Explanation:
Drawing a figure for the movement of a man as below.
Draw a figure for 1 km towards East.
Then Draw another figure for 5 km in south.
Again draw a line when he turns to East and walks 2 km,
after this draw a line when he turns to North and walks 9 km.
Correct Answer: 5 meters
Explanation:
The movements of A are as shown in Figure (O to P, P to Q, Q to R, R to S and S to T)
Since TS = OP + QR, so T lies in line with O. A's distance from the starting point O = OT = (RS ? PQ) = (15 ? 10)m = 5 m.
Correct Answer: 5
Explanation:
The movements of the man from A to F are as shown in Figure Clearly,
DC = AB + EF
Therefore, F is in line with A
Also, AF = (BC ? DE) = 5 m.
So, the man is 5 meters away from his initial position.
