Question
Rahul travels a distance of 100 m towards south. Now, he turns left and travels 75 m, and then travels 45 m towards the north and finally travels by turning 45° clockwise. In which direction is he traveling now?
Solution
- Rahul starts by traveling 100m towards the south.
- He then turns left. Since he was facing south, a left turn would now have him facing east. He travels 75m in this direction.
- Next, he travels 45m towards the north. His direction is now north, but he is still on the eastern side of his starting point.
- Finally, he turns 45° clockwise. Since he was facing north, a 45° turn to the right (clockwise) would now have him facing northeast.
So, Rahul is now traveling in the northeast direction.
