Question : Directions: M starts from his office and goes 15 km southwards, he then travels 5 km to the right, then travels 7 km to the left, and again he travels 7 km to the left, and eventually goes 22 km towards the left. Measure the distance between the final and starting point.
Option 1: 3 km
Option 2: 2 km
Option 3: 1 km
Option 4: 4 km
Correct Answer: 2 km
Solution : Firstly, we will draw the diagram as per the given instructions –
In the above figure, O is the starting point and E is the finishing point. So, OE is M's distance from the starting point to the final point.
OE = CD – AB
OE = 7 – 5 = 2 km
So, M's distance from the starting point to the final point is 2 km. Hence, the second option is correct.
