Question
Sania walks 10m in the south direction and then turns left and walks 5m to reach her father’s office; then she walks 8m after taking a right turn and then she takes a right turn and walks for 5m.In which direction is Sania's father’s office with respect to her final position?North-WestSouth-EastSouth-WestNorth-East
Solution
To solve this, let's break down Sania's movements:
- Sania starts by walking 10m south.
- She then turns left. Since she was walking south, a left turn would now have her walking east. She walks 5m east to reach her father's office.
- From her father's office, she takes a right turn. Since she was walking east, a right turn would now have her walking south. She walks 8m south.
- She then takes another right turn. Since she was walking south, a right turn would now have her walking west. She walks 5m west.
Now, we need to determine the direction of her father's office from her final position.
Her final position is 8m south and 5m west of her father's office. Therefore, her father's office is 8m north and 5m east from her final position.
The direction that is both north and east is north-east.
So, Sania's father’s office is in the north-east direction with respect to her final position.
