Direction: Study the information given below carefully and answer the questions that follow.
There are 10 members in the family who are sitting at some distance from each other in a park. N is 4 m in the west of M, who is 5 m in the north of O. Q is 12 m in the west of R. T is 3 m in the west of S, which is 12 m in the south of R. O is 6 m in the east of V, which is 2 m in the north of P, which is 8 m in the west of U. T is 1 m in the south of U.
In which direction is U with respect to M?
North
East
South-East
North-West
None of these
Correct answer
South-East
Why this answer is correct
According to the given information, we get the following figure,
So, U is in the south-east of M.
Hence, ‘South-East’ is the correct answer.
Direction: Study the information given below carefully and answer the questions that follow.
There are 10 members in the family who are sitting at some distance from each other in a park. N is 4 m in the west of M, who is 5 m in the north of O. Q is 12 m in the west of R.

5 m
Correct answer
5 m
Why this answer is correct
According to the given information, we get the following figure,
Shortest distance between N and Q = √ (42 + 32) = √ (16 + 9) = √ 25 = 5
Hence, ‘5 m’ is the correct answer.
Direction: Study the information given below carefully and answer the questions that follow.

None of the above
Correct answer
18 m
Why this answer is correct
According to the given information, we get the following figure,
