Question
Ramanuj walked from “Tower A” to “Tower B” in the East 10 feet. Then she turned to the right and walked 3 feet. Again he turned to the right and walked 14 feet. How far is she from Tower A?4 feet5 feet24 feet27 feet
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to visualize Ramanuj's path.
-
Ramanuj starts at Tower A and walks 10 feet to the East to Tower B.
-
Then, she turns right. In the context of the problem, a right turn from heading East would be heading South. She walks 3 feet in this direction.
-
She turns right again. Now, she would be heading West. She walks 14 feet in this direction.
At this point, Ramanuj is 14 feet West of Tower B. But remember, Tower B was 10 feet East of Tower A. So, if Ramanuj is 14 feet West of Tower B, she is actually 14 - 10 = 4 feet West of Tower A.
Therefore, Ramanuj is 4 feet away from Tower A. So, the correct answer is 4 feet.
