1. Gaurav walks 20 metres towards North. He then turns left and walks 40 metres. He again turns left and walks 20 metres. Further, he moves 20 metres after turning to the right. How far is he from his original position ?

40 metres
50 metres
60 metres
70 metres

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Please check the movements of Gaurav in the figure.
Now, Gaurav distance from his initial position A to E

AE = (AD+DE) = 40 + 20 = 60 metres.

2. One day, Raviraj left home and cycled 20 Km southwards, turned right and cycled 10 km and turned right and cycled 20 Km and turned left and cycled 20 Km. How many kilometres will he have to cycle to reach his home straight ?

50 Km
30 Km
40 Km
60 Km

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Please refer to explanation image,
Raviraj starts from home at A, moves 20 Km in south upto B. Then he turns right and moves 10 Km upto C, then he turns right and moves 20 Km upto D, then he turns lefts and moves 20 Km upto E.

So from image it is clear that, if he moves straight then he will have to move AD+DE, AD = BC = 10 Km
So, he will have to move 10 + 20 = 30 Km

3. A man is facing west. He turns 45 degree in the clockwise direction and then another 180 degree in the same direction and then 270 degree in the anticlockwise direction. Find which direction he is facing now ?

South-West
West
South
East-South

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Please refer to the explanation image.
The man firstly faces the direction OA. On moving 45 degree clockwise[Please check carefully always if clockwise or anticlockwise], he faces the direction OB.
Now again he moved 180 degree clockwise, now he will be facing OC. From here he moved 270 degree anticlockwise, Finally he is facing OD, which is South west.

4. Shweta goes towards East 5 km then she takes a turn to South-West and goes 5 km. She again takes a turn towards North-West and goes 5 km with respect to the point from where she started, where is she now ?

In the South-West
In the North-West
In the East
At the starting Point

Answer: Option D

5. Kunal walks 10 km towards North. From there he walks 6 Km towards South. Then, he walks 3 Km towards east. How far and in which direction is he with reference to his starting point ?

5 Km North
5 Km South
5 Km East
5 Km North-East

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Clearly, Kunal moves from A 10 Km northwards upto B, then moves 6 Km southwards upto C, turns towards east and moves 3 km upto D.
Then AC = (AB-BC) = 4 Km

So Kunal distance from starting point A
\begin{aligned}
AD = \sqrt{AC^2 + CD^2} \\
= \sqrt{4^2+3^2} \\
= \sqrt{25} = 5
\end{aligned}

So AD is 5 Km also with reference to starting point Kunal's direction is North-East.
