Solution : Firstly, we will draw the diagram as per the given instructions – Now, we have to find the distance between the starting point and the endpoint.
In the figure, A is the starting point and F is the finishing point. So, AF is the distance from the starting point. Here, AB = 10 m, BE = CD = 5 m, EF = 10 m Now, AF = AB + BE – EF AF = 10 + 5 – 10 AF = 5 m
So, the distance from the starting point is 5 m. Hence, the third option is correct.
