Question

The door of Aditya's house faces the East. From the back side of his house, he walks straight 50 metres, then turns to the right and walks 50 metres again. Finally, he turns to the left and stops after walking 25 metres. Now, Aditya is in which direction from the starting point?

विकल्प

• South - east

• North - east

• South - west

• North - west

Answer 1

North - west

Explanation:

Because Aditya's house faces East and he walks from the backside of his house, he is walking West. Thus, Aditya's movements are as shown below. (A to B, B to C, C to D).

Aditya's final position is clearly D, which is to the northwest of the starting point A.
