Anjali goes 12 km towards North from a fixed point and then she goes 8 km towards South from there. In the end she goes 3 km towards east. How far and in what direction is she from her starting point?
Ritu goes 30 km towards North from a fixed point, then after turning to her right she goes 15 km. After this she goes 30 km after turning to her right. How far and in what
direction is she from her starting point?
Neha goes 5 km towards east from a fixed point N and then 35 Km after turning to her left. Again she goes 10 km after turning to her right. After this she goes 35km after turning to her right. How far is she from N ?
