Question

Kamje travelled towards East from his office. After travelling 10 Km, he took a right turn and covered 2 km. Then he took a 45 Degree turn in clockwise direction and traveled 3 km. In which direction will he be travelling finally? \bigskip

• a) North-East
• b) South-East
• c) South-West
• d) East
• e) North-West

Hint:

To find the final direction, track each turn carefully. Right turn = 90° clockwise. A 45° clockwise turn from South puts you in South-West direction.

Answer 1

Answer: (E)

Step 1: Start at office, facing East. Travel 10 km East.
Step 2: Take a right turn (90° clockwise from East = South). Travel 2 km South.
Step 3: Take a 45° turn in clockwise direction from current direction. Current direction is South. 45° clockwise from South = South-West direction. Travel 3 km in South-West direction.
Step 4: Therefore, his final direction of travel is South-West.
