Q1. Rahul starts walking from point R, which is 16 m to the west of point T. From point R, he walks 20 m to the south, takes a right turn and walks 10 m. He then takes a right turn, walks 6 m and stops at point C. Gaurav starts walking from point A, which is 8 m to the south of point T. From point A, he walks 10 m to the east, takes a right turn and walks 6 m. He then takes a right turn, walks 26 m and stops at point B. What is the distance between point C and point B?
Explanation
Take T as the reference point. R is 16 m west of T. Rahul moves 20 m south, then right from south means west for 10 m, and right from west means north for 6 m, so C lies 26 m west and 14 m south of T. A is 8 m south of T. Gaurav moves 10 m east, then 6 m south, then 26 m west, so B lies 16 m west and 14 m south of T. C and B are on the same horizontal line, 10 m apart.
