Question:

A sales executive went to meet his client A in another office 17 km away in the North-east direction of his own office. From there he went to see client B in an office 15 km in the south of his client A’s office. How far from the starting point and in what direction is he now?

  1. 8 km, west
  2. 8 km, east
  3. 7 km, west
  4. 8 km, east

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

The executive moves from his office O to office A and then to office B.
Clearly, Triangle OAB is right-angled triangle.
So, OA2 = OB2 + AB2
OB2 = OA2 – AB2
OB = √172 - 152 = 2 √64 = 8
Thus, the executive is 8 km to the east of his initial position.
