Solution

The correct option is C

7:40 AM


If you analyze the two triangles, there is one red colored, one blue colored path in both the triangles and the angle included between them is also equal.

By SAS congruence criterion, both triangles are congruent.

Since congruent triangles have equal perimeters, both Rahul and Arjun finish their jogging at the same time as they are jogging at the same speed.
