Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A man walks 5 km north, then 5 km west, and finally 5 km south. In which direction is he from his starting point?
  • Step 1: The man starts at a point, which we will call the starting point.
  • Step 2: He walks 5 km north. Now he is 5 km north of the starting point.
  • Step 3: Next, he walks 5 km west. Now he is 5 km north and 5 km west of the starting point.
  • Step 4: Finally, he walks 5 km south. This means he moves back down 5 km to the same level as the starting point.
  • Step 5: After walking south, he is now directly west of the starting point, 5 km away.
  • Coordinate Geometry – Understanding movements in a Cartesian plane and how to calculate final positions based on directional movements.
  • Vector Addition – Applying vector addition to determine the resultant position after a series of movements in different directions.
