An old man starts his daily walking routine. He walks 2 km East, then turns North and walks 1 km, then turns West and walks 2 km, then turns to his right and walks 1.5 kms. Where is he now with respect to the starting position?
Let the old man starts his daily walking routine from point A and walks 2 km East to reach B, then turns North and walks 1 km to point C, then turns West and walks 2 km, finally turns to his right and walks 1.5 kms towards north to stop at point E.
=> AE = $$1.5+1=2.5$$ km
$$\therefore$$ Now he is 2.5 km north with respect to the starting position.
=> Ans - (D)
