Meghna walks from A: 7 m West, left 2 m to C, right 4 m to D, right 2 m, right 3 m to B. If she instead walks 2 m South from A to point E, which of these points (with E) lie in a straight line?
AA and B
BB and C
CC and D
DA and D
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. C and D
1. Coordinates: A(0,0), C(−7,−2), D(−11,−2), B(−8,0).
2. E = A shifted 2 m South = (0,−2).
3. E, C and D all have y = −2, so E lies on the same horizontal line as **C and D**.
