Vijay travels a distance of 5 km in the south. Then he turns to his right. After walking 5 km, he again turns to his right and walks 5 km. In which direction is he from his starting place?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Walking south, a right turn faces him west. After 5 km west, another right turn faces him north, and 5 km north cancels the original 5 km southward move. He ends up 5 km due west of the start, so his position is west of the starting place.
