Correct Answer: East; 70 m
Solution : Firstly, we draw the diagram as per the given instructions -
Now, we have to find the direction and what distance should Udai walk to reach 15 m north of the starting point.
Here, O is the starting point and D is the end point. OA = 25 m; AB = 55 m; BC = 45 m; CD = 70 m OA = FG = 25 m; AB = CE = 55 m; BC = AE = GD = 45 m DE = DC – EC; 70 m – 55 m = 15 m; DE = FO = 15 m From Point D he turns to his left to reach 15 m north of the starting point. Therefore, DG + GF = 45 m + 25 m = 70 m
So, he covers 70 m distance towards the east direction to reach 15 m north of the starting point. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
