In which direction is P with respect to the starting point?

I. P walked 20 m and took a right turn. He then walked 30 m, took a right turn again and walked 20 m towards West.

II. P walked 30 m, took a left turn and walked 20 m. He then took a left turn and walked 30 m towards East.

• A. If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question
• B. If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question
• C. If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question
• D. If the data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question
• E. If the data in both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question

Answer 1

The correct option is C

From Statement I,

Clearly, P is in South direction with respect to starting point from Statement II,

Clearly, P is in South direction with respect to starting point.

Hence, either Statement I or II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
