Answer 1

Suresh starts from A. His afterwards movements are shown in the diagram made according to the instructions. His final position is F. Now F lies to the East of A. He is at a distance AF which is (30+15)i.e. 45m.

Answer 2

Given,

Shyam walked $\[35\]$ m towards the north and then he turned to his right and walked $\[30\]$ m. Later, he then turned to his right and he walked $\[35\]$ m. Now turned his left and walked $\[25\]$ m.

To find,

The distance between the starting and the endpoint along with the direction.

Solution,

Refer to figure.

Therefore, the distance between the starting and the endpoint is

$\[\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow 30 + 25\\ \Rightarrow 55\end{array}\]$

Hence, the distance between the starting and the endpoint is $\[55{\rm{m}}\]$ and is facing west.
