Ashita starts from home at 7: 00 am and walk straight from 8 km facing the sun. Then she takes a right turn and walks from 3 km. Then she turns right again and walks for 2 km and then turns left and walks for 1 km. Again she turns right and walked for 1 km. Finally she turns right and travels for 4 km straight. How far is she from the starting point?

How far is she from the starting point? Correct Answer 5 km
Let us draw the diagram according to the information given in the question,
[ alt="F1 Rishabh 4-12-2020 Swati D4" src="//storage.googleapis.com/tb-img/production/20/12/F1_Rishabh_4-12-2020_Swati_D4.png" style="width: 441px; height: 342px;">
A is the starting point while G is the ending point.
AG is the distance between the starting and ending point.
HD = FE = 1km
HC = HD + DC
HC = 1km + 2km
HC= 3km
HC = GB
AB = 8km
AG = AB - GB
AG = 8km – 3km
AG = 5km
So, Ashita is 5km away from staring point.
Hence, ‘5km’ is the correct answer.
