Study the following layout information:
* Tree is located to the North-East of tree .
* Tree is situated exactly to the East of tree .
* Tree is situated exactly to the West of tree .
* Tree is to the North-West of tree and lies directly on the straight line connecting and .
* Tree is located directly to the South of tree .
What is the linear straight-line distance between tree and tree ?
- A
- B
- C
- D
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let us plot the positions along a single horizontal base line (West to East axis):
* Tree is our reference point. Let its position coordinate be at .
* " is to the East of " Position of .
* " is to the West of " This means is located to the East of . Position of .
Since , , and all lie on the same straight horizontal line running from West to East:
* Tree is our reference point. Let its position coordinate be at .
* " is to the East of " Position of .
* " is to the West of " This means is located to the East of . Position of .
Since , , and all lie on the same straight horizontal line running from West to East:
