If you run for 20 meters towards the east, take a right turn and run 50 meters and again take a left turn and run 60 meters, then the total distance covered by you while following the same route is ________.

• A. 120 m
• B. 140 m
• C. 130 m
• D. 150 m

Answer 1

The correct option is C 130 m

You started running towards the east for 20 meters,

If you take a right turn, you are running towards the south for 50 meters.

Now, if you take a left turn, you're runing towards the east for 60 meters again.
So the total distance convered by you while following the same path = 20 m + 50 m + 60 m = 130 m
