Question 86

Point A is 30m to the South of point B. Point C is 20 m to the East of point A. Point D is 15m to the south of point C. Point D is exactly midway between points E and F
in such a manner that point E, D and F form a horizontal straight line of 40m. Point E is to west of point D. How far and in which direction is point E from point B ?

Solution

Point A is 30 m to the South of point B and Point C is 20 m to the East of point A. Point D is 15m to the south of point C.

Point D is exactly midway between points E and F and distance of the line is 40 m.

Point E is to west of point D, => F is to the east of D and distance between ED and DF is 20 m.

Point E is in south direction from point B. Distance BE = 30 + 15 = 45 m

=> Ans - (A)
