Question
A school bus driver starts from the school, drives 2 km towards North, takes a left turn and drives for 5 km. He, then takes a left turn and drives for 8 km before taking a left turn again and driving for further 5 km. The driver finally takes a left turn and drives 1 km before stopping. How far and towards which direction should the driver drive to reach the school again?
Answer: Option E
Answer: (e)
According to the question, the direction diagram will be as follows.
Now, BC = DE = 5 km, CD = BE = 8 km AB = 2 km, EF = 1 km
Therefore, Required distance, AF = BE - (AB + EF) = 8 - (2 + 1) = 8 - 3 = 5 km.
From the direction diagram, it is clear that the bus is present finally in the South direction of school.
So, the driver needs to drive 5 km towards North direction to reach the school.
