Answer 2

Answer:

The the distance and direction of Vijay's current location with respect to his starting point​ is 5 m and South-west respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider that O is the starting point of Vijay. Then He walks in the south direction to point A (see the figure attached below).

The distance between OA = 10m

Then he takes U turn and walks to point B distance AB = 6m

From here, we can calculate distance, $OB = 10 - 6 = 4m$

From point B, he turns left and walks distance, BC = 3m

Now to calculate the distance between point C and Starting point O, draw a right angle triangle ΔOBC,

Here, $OC^2 = OB^2 + BC^2$  

$OC^2 =(4)^2 + (3)^2$

$OC^2 = 16+9$

$OC^2 =25$

$OC =5m$

Therefore, the distance of his current location with respect to his starting point​ is equal to 5m. The direction of his current location is south-west with respect to his starting point​.
