Question
Ana starts from point X and walks 5 km west, then turns left and walks 2 km. She again turns left and walks 7 km. In which direction is she from point X?Select one:a. South-Eastb. North-westc. North-eastd. South-west
Solution
Ana starts at point X and walks 5 km west. This means she is moving to the left on a standard map.
She then turns left, which would now be heading south, and walks 2 km.
Again, she turns left. Now, she is heading east and walks 7 km.
At this point, Ana has walked 2 km more to the east (7 km east - 5 km west) than she has to the west. She is also 2 km south from point X.
Therefore, Ana is in the South-East direction from point X.
So, the correct answer is a. South-East.
