Karan starts from point A and travels towards north for 5 km. He then takes a right turn and travels for 7 km. He then takes a left turn and travels another 7 km. Finally he takes another left turn and travels for 2 km arriving at a point B.
What is the distance between point A and B?

Solution

Based on the given information, the path travelled by karan could be derived as below

Therefore the distance between A and B = $$\sqrt{12^{2} + 5^{2}}$$ = 13

So the correct option to choose is A - 13 km.
