Correct Answer: 5 km
Solution : Firstly, we will draw the diagram as per the given instructions –
Here, AB = 3 km and BC = 4 km AC is the distance between the starting and the finishing point. By applying the Pythagoras theorem – ⇒ (AC) 2 = (AB) 2 + (BC) 2 = (3) 2 + (4) 2 = 9 + 16 = 25 ⇒ AC = √25 = 5 km
So, Karthik is 5 km away from the starting point. Hence, the first option is correct.
