Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFAccording to given conditions,
- Shweta starts walking from her office and walks 150 m towards the south.
- Then she turns right and walks 80 m.
- Then she turns left and walks 60 m.
- She finally turns left and walks 280 m to reach a bank.
Now, the shortest distance between Shweta's office and bank can be calculated by the pythagoras theorem :-
⇒ Here, x stands for shortest distance.
So, (x)2 = (60 + 150)2 + (280 - 80)2
⇒ (x)2 = (210)2 + (200)2
⇒ (x)2 = 44100 + 40000
⇒ (x)2 = 84100
⇒ x = 290 M
