Directions : Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions:
Two buses P and Q start their journey from bus depot to different destinations. Bus P starts 12km in south and reach at point 1. Then turns left and travel 13km to reach at point 2. Then turns right and travel 14km to reach at point 3. After that it turns left and travels 18km to reach at point 4. Then bus P turns to left and travel 9km to reach final stops 5. Bus Q travel 16km in east of depot to reach at point 6. Now turns right and travel 11km to reach at point 7. Then turns left and travel 22km to reach at point 8. Then turns left and travel 14km to react at point 9. Finally turns left and travel 39km to reach at point 10.
These stops are assigned names according to the given below conditions:
* If the distance between two consecutive points is prime number, then first stops is called ‘A’
* If the stops (points) are in north-west and south-east of bus depot, then these points are called ‘B’
* If the stops (points) are in north-east of bus depot, then these points are called ‘C’
* If the distance between two consecutive points is even number, then first stops is called ‘D’
What is the shortest distance between point 1 and point 6?
- A.
28km
- B.
20km
- C.
24km
- D.
32km
- E.
None of these
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Point 1 is 12 km south of the depot and point 6 is 16 km east of the depot. The shortest distance is sqrt(12^2 + 16^2) = sqrt(400) = 20 km.
