Total Distance Covered by Aman
To calculate the total distance Aman covered during his journey, we can break down each segment of his trip:
1. Initial Journey Towards East
- Aman drives 4 km to the East.
2. First Left Turn
- After turning left (now facing North), he covers 12 km.
3. First Right Turn
- He then takes a right turn (now facing East again) and drives 10 km.
4. Second Left Turn
- After the left turn (now facing North), he covers 8 km.
5. Final Left Turn
- Finally, he takes another left turn (now facing West) and drives 14 km.
Distance Calculation
- To find the total distance, we sum all the distances he covered:
- East: 4 km
- North: 12 km
- East: 10 km
- North: 8 km
- West: 14 km
Adding the Distances
- Total distance = 4 km + 12 km + 10 km + 8 km + 14 km
Final Calculation
- Total distance = 4 + 12 + 10 + 8 + 14 = 48 km
Conclusion
- Thus, the total distance covered by Aman is 48 km, confirming that the correct answer is option D.

Distance and Direction Calculation:
To calculate the distance and direction of Ritesh's current location after meeting his friend, we need to consider the following information:

Distance Traveled:
- Ritesh traveled 5 km in the north-east direction to meet his cousin.
- From his cousin's village, he traveled 4 km in the south direction to meet his friend.

Calculation:
- The distance traveled in the north-east direction is 5 km.
- The distance traveled in the south direction is 4 km.

Final Position:
- To determine Ritesh's current location, we need to find the remaining distance and direction from his friend's village.
- We can calculate this by finding the difference between the distances traveled in the north-east and south directions.

Final Distance and Direction:
- The remaining distance is 5 km - 4 km = 1 km.
- The direction of this remaining distance is towards the east.
Therefore, Ritesh is now 1 km away from his friend's village in the east direction. The correct answer is option 'a) 1 km, East.'

Explanation:

The information given in the question is that Pravin starts from his home, which is in the east. He comes to a crossing where there are three roads: one to the left ends in a theatre, straight ahead leads to the hospital. We need to determine in which direction the college is located.

To solve this, we need to analyze the directions mentioned in the question and make a logical deduction.

Step 1: Analyzing the directions mentioned:
- Pravin starts from his home, which is in the east.
- The road to the left ends in a theatre.
- Straight ahead leads to the hospital.

Step 2: Analyzing the given information:
- Since Pravin starts from his home in the east, we can assume that the theatre is west of his home.
- The road to the left ends in a theatre, so it must be pointing towards the west.
- The road straight ahead leads to the hospital, but we don't have any information about the direction of the hospital.

Step 3: Making a logical deduction:
- Since we don't have any information about the direction of the hospital, we cannot determine the direction of the college based on the given information.

Conclusion:
Based on the given information, we cannot determine the direction of the college. Therefore, the correct answer cannot be determined from the options given (North, South, East, West).
