From his house, Avinash went to Kapil’s house situated 500 m towards the north-east of his own house. From there, both of them went to Varun’s house situated 400 m towards the south of Kapil’s house. What is the shortest distance between Avinash’s current location and his location at the beginning?
Solution
Using Pythegoras Theorem,
Shortest distance $$\sqrt{\ 500^2-400^2}=\sqrt{\ 90000}=300.$$
