Two aeroplanes start from the same strip. Aeroplane P flies 65 miles North, then turns left flies 45 miles and lands. In the meanwhile aeroplane Q flies 80 miles West, then flies 40 miles South, then turns to its left, flies 35 miles and lands. Where is aeroplane Q with respect to aeroplane P?

Solution

Let the two aeroplanes start from the same strip S. Aeroplane P (red) flies 65 miles North to reach T, then turns left and flies 45 miles and lands at point U. In the meanwhile aeroplane Q (black) flies 80 miles West to R, then flies 40 miles South, and finally turns to its left, flies 35 miles towards east and lands at point P. 

=> PU = $$40+65=105$$ miles

$$\therefore$$ Aeroplane Q is 105 miles south with respect to aeroplane P.

=> Ans - (D)
