    Solution

    Since Aditya's house faces towards East and he walks from backside of his house, it means that he starts walking towards West. Thus, the movements of Aditya are as shown in Figure (A to B, B to C, C to D).
    Clearly, Aditya's final position is D which is to the North-west of the starting point A.

  • Question 2
    3 / -1

    A man is facing south. He turns 135° in the anticlockwise direction and then 180° in the clockwise direction. Which direction is he facing now?

    Solution

    As shown in Figure, the man initially faces in the direction OA. On moving 135° anticlockwise, he faces in the direction OB. On further moving 180° clockwise, he faces in the direction OC, which is South-west.

  • Question 3
    3 / -1

    A man walks 30 metres towards South. Then, turning to his right, he walks 30 metres. Then, turning to his left, he walks 20 metres. Again, he turns to his left and walks 30 metres. How far is he from his initial position?

    Solution

    The movements of the man are as shown in figure.
    Man's distance from initial position A = AE = (AB + BE) = (AB + CD) = (30 + 20) m = 50 m.

  • Question 4
    3 / -1

    If South-east is called 'East', 'North-west' is called 'West', 'South-west' is called 'South' and so on, what will 'North' be called?

    Solution

    In diagram (i) the directions are shown as they actually are.
    Diagram (ii) is as per the given data.
    So, comparing the direction of North in (i) with that in (ii), North will be called North west.

  • Question 5
    3 / -1

    Starting from a point P, Sachin walked 20 metres towards South. He turned left and walked 30 metres. He then turned left and walked 20 metres. He again turned left and walked 40 metres and reached a point Q. How far and in which direction is the point Q from the point P?

    Solution

    The movements of Sachin are as shown in Figure. (P to B, B to C, C to D and D to Q).
    Clearly, distance of Q from P = PQ = (DQ - PD) = (DQ - BC) = (40 - 30) m = 10 m.
    Also, Q is to the West of P.
    Q is 10 m West of P.

  • Question 6
    3 / -1

    Raj travelled from a point X straight to Y at a distance of 80 metres. He turned right and walked 50 metres, then again turned right and walked 70 metres. Finally, he turned right and walked 50 metres. How far is he from the starting point?

    Solution

     

    The movements of Raj are as shown in Figure. (X to Y, Y to A, A to B, B to C). Rajâ's distance from the starting point X = XC = (XY - YC) = (XY - BA) = (80 - 70) m = 10 m.

  • Question 7
    3 / -1

    A walks 10 metres in front and 10 metres to the right. Then every time turning to his left, he walks 5, 15 and 15 metres respectively. How far is he now from his starting point?

    Solution

    The movements of A are as shown in figure. (O to P, P to Q, Q to R, R to S and S to T).
    Since TS = OP + QR, so T lies in line with O.
    A's distance from the starting point O = OT = (RS - PQ) = (15 - 10) m = 5m.

  • Question 8
    3 / -1

    A man is facing north-west. He turns 90° in the clockwise direction, then 180° in the anticlockwise direction and then another 90° in the same direction. Which direction is he facing now?

    Solution

    As shown in figure, the man initially faces in the direction OP. On moving 90° clockwise, he faces in the direction OX. On further moving 180° anticlockwise, he faces in the direction OY. Finally, on moving 90° anticlockwise, he faces in the direction OZ, which is South-east.
