Test Level 3: Direction Sense - CAT MCQ

Directions: Study the following information carefully to answer the given question.

There are two axes AB and XY such that A is in north, B is in south, X is in west and Y is in east. Q is the point of intersection of both the axes. At A, B, X and Y, there are houses of 4 friends - Amit, Rahul, Karan and Kunal, respectively. Another friend Rohan is standing at the point 'Q' facing north-east direction. He then walks 4 km in the same direction which he is facing and reaches 'M'. Then he turns 135° anticlockwise and walks 5 km straight and reaches 'N'. Amit starts walking towards south from his house and reaches point Q. After reaching Q, Rohan tells Amit to meet him at N; so Amit travels the shortest distance possible to reach N in the end where he meets Rohan.

Q. What is the final direction of Amit with respect to Q?

Directions: Study the following information and answer the question given below.

Five students - P, Q, R, S and T were preparing an act for their annual function. They were facing south, but not necessarily in the same order. The distances between two adjacent students are successive multiples of 5 (i.e. the distance between the first and the second student is 5 m, the first and the third student is 10 m, and between the first and the fourth student is 15 m, and so on.)
Also,
Q is the immediate neighbour of T.
There are two students between S and R.
P is second to the right of Q.
R is not adjacent to P.

Student P turned 180° and walked straight for 10 m, and reached point A. Student R walked some distance to reach point A. Student T walked 10$\ \sqrt{2}$ m to reach point B in the southwest direction by turning exactly 45°. Student Q walked some distance straight due south to reach a point which is horizontally in line with point B.
