Question : Directions: Kartik walks 40 m straight from his home towards the North. Then, he turns left and walks 25 m. He turns left again and walks 15 m. Finally, he turns left and walks 25 m to reach Point X. What is the shortest distance between his home and Point X?
Option 1: 22 m
Option 2: 25 m
Option 3: 15 m
Option 4: 55 m
Correct Answer: 25 m
Solution : Firstly, we will draw the diagram as per the given instructions –
Point A is the starting point and the X is the endpoint, so the distance between them is XA. XA = 40 – 15 = 25
So, the shortest distance between Kartik's home and point X is 25 m. Hence, the second option is correct.
