As per the question, D is 1km West of A, therefore AB=DC=2km.

2) Answer (D)

The below are the different possible positions of the cities:

              B                     OR                   B                  OR                     B

F          H/D                                   F      D                                           H

                                                            H                           F               D

Hence H can be South-East of F or East of F or North-East.

=> Data Inadequate

3) Answer (D)

Ashok walked 50m towards South. Then he took right and walked 30m=> he is travelling towards East. Now, he is 50m South and 30m East from his starting position.

Then he took right and travelled 100m => Now he is walking towards North and is 50m North and 30m East from his starting position.

Finally, he took right again and travelled 30m => He is walking towards West and is 50m North from his starting position.

4) Answer (C)

The required distance = 11 m

5) Answer (B)

The movement of Mohan is as shown in the diagram below. So, he is 30 + 20 = 50 metres from the original spot.

6) Answer (D)

The movement of Ashok is as shown below. So, he is North of the original spot by 100 – 50 = 50 metres.

7) Answer (C)

Based on the given information, the path travelled by sita could be as below.

Therefore the direction she finally faces is North-east.

8) Answer (A)

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.

9) Answer (A)

Based on the given information, the path travelled by Anup could be as below.

Distance between A and B = $\sqrt{8^2 + 15^2}$ = 17 km.

Anup faces west at point B.

So the correct option to choose is A.

10) Answer (E)

Total number of children in the row = 25

Position of R from right end = 16th

Position of B from left end = 18th

=> Position of B from right end = (25 – 18) + 1 = 8th

$\therefore$ Number of children between R and B = (16 – 8) – 1 = 7

=> Ans – (E)
