Question

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

All the roads of a city are either perpendicular or parallel to one another. The roads are all straight. Roads A, B, C, D and E are parallel to one another. Roads G, H, I, J, K, L and M are parallel to one another. Road A is 1 km East of road B. Road B is $\frac{1}{2}$ km West of Road C. Road D is 1 km West of road E. Road G is $\frac{1}{2}$ km South of road H. Road I is 1 km North of road J. Road K is $\frac{1}{2}$ km North of road L. Road K is 1 km South of road M.

If K is parallel to I and K is $\frac{1}{2}$ km South of J and 1 km North of G. Which two roads would be $\frac{1}{2}$ km apart?

• A. I and K
• B. K and J
• C. I and G
• D. J and G
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is B K and J

From the given information, we can draw the following diagram:
From the first three information; we have

From the last four information, we have


Clearly from the figure, I and K is $\frac{1}{5}$ km apart; K and J is $\frac{1}{2}$ km apart; I and G is 2 km apart and J and G is 1 km apart.
Hence the required answer is (B)
