## Direction Sense Test Questions - 1

Giri travels 4 miles towards north. He turns to the left and travels 6 miles. Then he turns right and travels 4 miles. How far is he from the starting point?
• 12 Miles
• 10 Miles
• 14 Miles
• 8 Miles
• 15 Miles
Explanation

Using Pythagorean theorem: C2 = A2 + B2

$$or \ Hypotenuse \ = \sqrt{{Base^2} + {Height^2}}$$ $$Distance = \sqrt{{8^2} + {6^2}} = \sqrt{100} = 10 \ m$$
