Question
Reena travelled from point A to a distance of 10 feet
East at point B. She then turned right and walked 3 feet. Again, she turned right and walked 14 feet. How far is she from the starting point A?ÂSolution
Let's break down Reena's movements step by step: From Point A to Point B: Reena travels 10 feet East. From Point B: She turns right (which means she now faces South) and walks 3 feet. Next Turn: She turns right again (now facing West) and walks 14 feet. Moving 10 feet East and then walking 14 feet West means her net horizontal movement is: 14 – 10 = 4 feet West 14−10=4 feet West d=16+9​=25​=5 feet
