Total Distance Covered by Aman
To calculate the total distance Aman covered during his journey, we can break down each segment of his trip:
1. Initial Journey Towards East
- Aman drives 4 km to the East.
2. First Left Turn
- After turning left (now facing North), he covers 12 km.
3. First Right Turn
- He then takes a right turn (now facing East again) and drives 10 km.
4. Second Left Turn
- After the left turn (now facing North), he covers 8 km.
5. Final Left Turn
- Finally, he takes another left turn (now facing West) and drives 14 km.
Distance Calculation
- To find the total distance, we sum all the distances he covered:
- East: 4 km
- North: 12 km
- East: 10 km
- North: 8 km
- West: 14 km
Adding the Distances
- Total distance = 4 km + 12 km + 10 km + 8 km + 14 km
Final Calculation
- Total distance = 4 + 12 + 10 + 8 + 14 = 48 km
Conclusion
- Thus, the total distance covered by Aman is 48 km, confirming that the correct answer is option D.

Ritesh went to meet his cousin to another village situated 5 km away in north-east direction of Ritesh’s village. From there he came to meet his friend living in a village situated 4km in the south of his cousin’s village. How far away and in which direction is he now?
  • a)
    3km, East
  • b)
    4km, East
  • c)
    3km, North
  • d)
    4km, West 
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Distance and Direction Calculation:
To calculate the distance and direction of Ritesh's current location after meeting his friend, we need to consider the following information:

Distance Traveled:
- Ritesh traveled 5 km in the north-east direction to meet his cousin.
- From his cousin's village, he traveled 4 km in the south direction to meet his friend.

Calculation:
- The distance traveled in the north-east direction is 5 km.
- The distance traveled in the south direction is 4 km.

Final Position:
- To determine Ritesh's current location, we need to find the remaining distance and direction from his friend's village.
- We can calculate this by finding the difference between the distances traveled in the north-east and south directions.

Final Distance and Direction:
- The remaining distance is 5 km - 4 km = 1 km.
- The direction of this remaining distance is towards the east.
Therefore, Ritesh is now 1 km away from his friend's village in the east direction. The correct answer is option 'a) 1 km, East.'

Starts the game by flicking the striker towards the other carrom men on the board. B, C, and D take turns to flick the striker and try to pocket their respective carrom men into the corner pockets. The objective of the game is to score points by pocketing carrom men into the pockets while avoiding penalties.

Each player gets a chance to flick the striker and pocket their carrom men. The order of turns is A, B, C, and D. The game continues until all the carrom men are pocketed or when a specified number of rounds are completed.

During the game, players can use various techniques to pocket their carrom men. They can use a direct shot to aim the striker towards a carrom man and pocket it. They can also use the carrom men as rebound surfaces to pocket other carrom men. However, players should be careful not to pocket the striker or their opponent's carrom men, as this can result in penalties.

Points are awarded based on the carrom men pocketed and the number of rounds completed. The player with the highest score at the end of the game is declared the winner.

Carom is a popular game played in many countries, especially in South Asia. It requires skill, precision, and strategic thinking to pocket the carrom men and score points. It is often played competitively in tournaments and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

Charvi Pillai answered
Explanation:

The information given in the question is that Pravin starts from his home, which is in the east. He comes to a crossing where there are three roads: one to the left ends in a theatre, straight ahead leads to the hospital. We need to determine in which direction the college is located.

To solve this, we need to analyze the directions mentioned in the question and make a logical deduction.

Step 1: Analyzing the directions mentioned:
- Pravin starts from his home, which is in the east.
- The road to the left ends in a theatre.
- Straight ahead leads to the hospital.

Step 2: Analyzing the given information:
- Since Pravin starts from his home in the east, we can assume that the theatre is west of his home.
- The road to the left ends in a theatre, so it must be pointing towards the west.
- The road straight ahead leads to the hospital, but we don't have any information about the direction of the hospital.

Step 3: Making a logical deduction:
- Since we don't have any information about the direction of the hospital, we cannot determine the direction of the college based on the given information.

Conclusion:
Based on the given information, we cannot determine the direction of the college. Therefore, the correct answer cannot be determined from the options given (North, South, East, West).

Sagar Mehra answered
The movements of Mahesh are as shown in fig. (A to B, B to C, C to D, D to E).

∴ Mahesh distance from his original position A = AE = (AB – BE) 
= (AB – CD)
= (30 – 20)m = 10 m 

Manoj walks 10m in front end 10m to the right then every time turning to his left. He walks 5m, 15m and 15m respectively. How far is he now from his starting point?

    10m
  • c)
    15m

    20m
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Devika Nair answered
The movements of Manoj are as shown in figure (O to P, P to Q, Q to R, R to S and S to T).

Since TS = OP + QR, so T lies with O.
∴ Required distance
OT = (RS – PQ)
= (15 – 10) m = 5 m
