Question : Directions: A boy walks 15 m north, turns right, and walks 20 m. Again, he turns right and walks 15 m. Finally, he turns to his left and moves 20 m. What is the distance now from his original position?
Option 1: 40 m
Option 2: 46 m
Option 3: 50 m
Option 4: 45 m
Correct Answer: 40 m
Solution : According to the instructions given, the diagram is as follows –
Here, O is the starting point and D is the finishing point and OD is the total distance from the starting point.
OA = 15m; AB = 20m; BC = 15m; CD = 20m
And, OD = 20 + 20 = 40m
So, the distance now from his original position is 40m. Hence, the first option is correct.
