A man walks 5 km east, turns left and walks 3 km, turns left again and walks 5 km. How far is he from the start?

  1. 13 km
  2. 5 km
  3. 8 km
  4. 3 km
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. 3 km

1. East 5 km. Left = North 3 km. Left again = West 5 km. 2. East displacement: 5 − 5 = 0. North displacement: 3. 3. Distance from start = √(0² + 3²) = 3 km. _Source: TSICET 2024 PYQ Q.46 (Shift 1, Direction Sense)_

  1. 10 m
  2. 4 m
  3. 7 m
  4. 6 m
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. 6 m
