हिन्दी में पढ़ें →A man is facing southwards. He turns right and walks 25 metres, turns right and walks 15 metres, turns left and walks 15 metres, turns right and walks 25 metres, and then turns right and walks 70 metres. In which direction is he now from the starting point?
ASouth-West
BSouth-East
CNorth-West
DNorth-East ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) North-East
Explanation
He is now to the North-East of the start.
Facing south, a right turn faces west; 25 m gives (-25, 0).
Right to north, 15 m gives (-25, 15); left to west, 15 m gives (-40, 15).
Right to north, 25 m gives (-40, 40); right to east, 70 m gives (30, 40).
The end point (30, 40) is east and north of the start.
So the direction is North-East.
