MCQ
उत्तर
5 kms, North-East
Explanation:
A = starting point, C = end point
Point C is north-east in direction with respect to point A.
Distance between AC = `sqrt("AB"^2 + "BC"^2)`
`= sqrt((3)^2 + (4)^2)`
`= sqrt(9+16) = sqrt25` = 5 kms
Therefore, Harsh is 5 kms and in north-east direction from his starting point.
