Answer Key
Answer: d
P was initially running 40 km in east direction. Then, P took a left turn and ran for 20km in the North direction. Again after taking a right turn P ran for 18 km in east direction. P took a left turn and ran 24km in North direction and took a right turn and ran for 12 km in the west direction. So, P is finally running in the west direction.
Answer: d.
P walks 10km in south and took a right turn and walks 6km in east direction. Now, P took a left turn and walks 3 km in the south direction and finally took a left turn and walks for 5km. So, with respect to the starting point, P is now standing in south direction.
Answer: a

Answer: d
A walks 35 km in the west direction and took a right turn and walks for 50 km. He again takes a right turn and walk for 35 km. He stops there. As we can see in the figure, the distance between starting point and the end point will be 50 km.
