Download Solution PDFGiven, Starting from a point 'A', Raghav walked 40m towards North. Then he took a right turn and walked 60 m straight. Then he took a left turn and walked 40m straight to reach a point 'B'.
The shortest distance between A and B is the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle, where the base is 60m and the perpendicular is 40m + 40m = 80m.
Using the Pythagorean theorem:
Distance = √(602 + 802)
Distance = √(3600 + 6400)
Distance = √10000 = 100m
Therefore, the shortest distance between point A and B is 100m.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
