Q-6. A man from point A walks 100 m. to the North direction, then walks 60m. to the South then walks 30m. to the east and reaches at point B. Find distance and direction from point A to point B.?
(a) 70m. / East
(b) 90m./South
(c) 50m. / North-East
(d) 50m./South-East

View Answer and Solution 

Answer: (c) 50m. / North-East
Solution:
In triangle ABC

AB = \sqrt{(AC)^{2}+ {(CB)^{2}}} 
= \sqrt{40^{2}+ {30}^{2}} 
= \sqrt{2500}
= 50M
B is in north east direction from A

Q-7. Rohit walks 100 m. to the East from point ‘A’ Then turns right and walks 100m. Again turns right and walks 20m. Again turns right and walks 250m. and reached at point B. Find shortest distance b/w A and B?
(a) 75m.
(c) 170m.
(b) 180m.
(d) 200m.

View Answer and Solution 

Answer: (c) 170m.
Solution:
In triangle ABF

AB = \sqrt{(150)^{2}+ {(80)^{2}}} 
= \sqrt{22500+6400}
= \sqrt{28900}
= 170 m

Q-8. Seema walks 7 m. to the South-East from point A. Then walks 14 m to the west, then walks 7 m. to the North- West. In last she walks 4 m. to the East and reached at point B. Find shortest distance b/w A and B?
(a) 18m.
(b) 19m.
(c) 98√2m.
(d) 10m.

View Answer and Solution 

Answer:(d) 10m.
Solution:

Required distance AB = 10 m

Q-9. A man walked 60 m. to the East from point A, then turn right and walked 50m. In last he turn left and went for 60m. and reached at point B. Find AB?
(a) 170m.
(b) 130m.
(c) 145m.
(d) 150m.

View Answer and Solution 

Answer: (b) 130m.
Solution:
In triangle ABD

AB = \sqrt{(120)^{2}+ {(50)^{2}}} 
= \sqrt{14400+2500}
= \sqrt{16900}
= 130 m
