Directions: Read the given information carefully and answer the questions given beside:

Below image shows a square garden where each dot represents one of the persons among Annie, Bony, Charlie, Danny and Emy. Charlie is in the south-east of Danny. Bony is in the east of Annie. Emy& and Danny stand in a straight line.

Note- The given numbers are in meters. The four corners of the park are marked as A, B, C, D. [S.3, Q.2]

Find the distance between Charlie and B?

Step-by-step solution

The distance between Charlie and B is 10m, because in a square each side is equal and we can measure one of the sides as 12 + 6 + 6 = 24m

Hence option C is correct.

Common Explanation:

Reference :

Below image shows a square garden where each dot represents one of the persons among Annie, Bony, Charlie, Danny and Emy. Charlie is in the south-east of Danny. Bony is in the east of Annie. Emy& and Danny stand in a straight line.

Note- The given numbers are in meters. The four corners of the park are marked as A,B,C,D.

Inference :

As Charlie is in the south-east of Danny, thus Danny must be between AB.

Bony is in the east of Annie, thus Bonnie and Annie must be between CD such that Bony is nearest to D and Annie is nearest to C.

Thus Charlie will be 14m north of D.

Position of Emy and Danny cannot be fixed.
