Answer 1

Given:

Person goes 2 kms in East

Then turns right and goes 1 km

Turns right again and goes 3 kms

To find:

The current direction of the person.

Solution:

As we can see from the diagram that the final position of the man according to coordinate axes will be (-1.-1).

Since he starts from origin, his final position is in the south- west direction or more particularly 45° west from south.

He is in the south west direction from his starting point.
