Answer:
13 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance covered by Sudha from point P to point Q = 12km
From Q she travelled 5 km towards south and reach the point R. Join PR
The shortest distance between the points P and Q is given by PR
Now we get a right triangle. PR =( PQ^2+QR^2)^1.2
PR = (144 + 25)^1/2
PR =13 km
