Question 286

SBI Clerk 2025• Reasoning Ability• Reasoning Ability

Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the question given below.

Priya is at point P and is facing towards north. She started walking straight from point P and walked 50 km to reach a point Q. From Q she has taken a right turn and walked 30 km to reach a point R, and again took a right turn and walked 40 km to reach S. She then took a left turn from S and walked 20 km to reach T. From T she walked 10 km towards the south to reach U.

50 km

Why this answer is correct

Let us draw the diagram according to the information given in the question,

PU = QR + ST

= 30 km + 20 km

= 50 km

Hence, 50 km is the distance between starting and ending point.

Why this answer is correct

Let us draw the diagram according to the information given in the question,

Here, the first point is to the northwest of the second point and thus form a group whereas in RP this pattern is not followed.

SU → S is in north west of U.

2) RP → R is in north east of P.

QT → Q is in north west of T.
RT → R is in north west of T.
QU → Q is in north west of U

Hence, RP does not belong to that group.

DOption (d)
50\(\sqrt{10} \) km
EOption (e)
60 km

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

C.

50 km

Why this answer is correct

Let us draw the diagram according to the information given in the question,

By using the Pythagorean Theorem,

QS = \(\sqrt{(QR)^2 + (RS)^2} \)

QS = \(\sqrt{(30)^2 + (40)^2} \)

QS = \(\sqrt{2500} \)

QS = 50 km

Hence, 50 km is the Shortest distance between Q and S.
