Video on Directions Direction - "A path along which someone or something moves." In the topic, all the questions are based on four main directions (i.e. East, West, North and South) and four cardinal directions (i.e. North-East, North-West, South-East and South-West). Based on given scenario we have to find out either direction or distance from given place. Importance of topicDirection and Distance type questions check one’s sense of directions and ability to visualize. This type of questions are asked in IBPS PO, IBPS Clerk, CMAT, GMAT, CAT, SSC CGL, Clerical, CET, etc. Pre-Requisites Direction sense - There are four main directions East, West, North and South. We will denote it as E, W, N and S respectively. There are four Cardinal Directions that exist between four main directions namely North-East, North-West, South-East and South-West. We will represent them as NE, NW, SE and SW. Angle - Now one thing we have to remember is that angle between two main directions is always 90° and angle between main direction and its adjacent cardinal direction is always 45°. Selection of right or left direction depends on whether it is clockwise (Right turn) or anti-clockwise (Left turn). Example: A boy is facing towards west and turns 45° clockwise. So in this case Boy will turn on his right side 45°. If it was 45° ANTI-CLOCKWISE then Boy will turn on his left 45°. Pythagoras Theorem In Pythagoras Theorem, relation between three sides of the right angle triangle is defined. This theo...

Sanjeev walks 10 meters towards the South. Turning to the left, he walks 20 meters and then moves to his right. And moving a distance of 20 meters, he turns to the right and walks 20 meters. Finally, he turns to the right and moves a distance of 10 meters. How far and in which direction is he from the starting point? • Options • A. 10 meters North • B. 20 meters South • C. 20 meters North • D. 10 meters South • Correct Answer • 20 meters South Explanation The movements of Sanjeev from A to F are as shown in Figure Clearly, Sanjeev's distance from starting point A = AF = (AB + BF) = AB + ( BE ? EF ) = AB + (CD ? EF) = [10 + (20 ? 10)] m = (10 + 10) m = 20 m. Also, F lies to the South of A. So, Sanjeev is 20 meters to the south of his starting point.

• Initiates action. The initiation of all actions starts with the directions given by the , superiors to their subordinates. • Takes place at every level of management. Wherever there is a superior and his subordinate, Directing is present. We can see that all the levels of management have superiors-subordinates, so directing is present at every level of management. • Is a continuous process. Like other functions directing is also continuous. Directions will always be given in an organisation till it exists. • Flows from top to bottom. Directions always flow from superior to subordinate. So the direction is from top to bottom. Importance of Directing • Helps in introducing changes in an organisation, as it calms down the resistance which occurs against that change. • Helps in integrating employees’ efforts, as it integrates all their actions by proper communication and leadership. • Initiates action, as through proper directions all the necessary steps are initiated. • Brings stability and balance in the organisation by properly defining authority- responsibility relationships. This eliminates any chances of confusion. • Helps in bringing out potential and enhancing capabilties of employees by motivating and leading them as and when required. Elements of Directing • Supervision • Motivation • Leadership • Communication • SUPERVISION.It is the process of overseeing and analysing the efforts and activities of employees and timely guiding them through instructions and proper ...

Question 16: Ramesh takes 6.5 hours to go from city A to city B at 3 different speeds 30 kmph, 45 kmph, and 60 kmph covering the same distance with each speed. The respective mileages per liter of fuel are 11 km, 14 km and 18 km for the above speeds. Ramesh's friend Arun is an efficient driver and wants to minimise his friend's car's fuel consumption. So he decides to drive Ramesh's car one day from city A to city B. How much fuel will he be able to save? A. 4.2 liters B. 4.5 liters C. 0.7 liters D. 0.3 liters Answer: Option: B Explanation: Total time = 6.5 hrs Let the total distance be x Ramesh's speeds = 30, 45, 60 kmph or x = 270 km With each speed distance covered = 270/3 = 90 km Fuel consumed when driving at 30 = 90/11 = 8.1 l Fuel consumed when driving at 45 = 90/14 = 6.4 l Fuel consumed when driving at 60 = 90/18 = 5 Total fuel = 8.1 + 6.4 + 5 = 19.5 liters When Arun drives the car, he should drive at 60 kmph throughout so that he gets the maximum mileage! Fuel consumption when driving at 60 for entire journey = 270/18 = 15 liters The question is " So he decides to drive Ramesh's car one day from city A to city B. How much fuel will he be able to save? " Difference = 19.5 – 15 = 4.5 Hence, the answer is 4.5 liters. Question 17: Amar, Akbar and Antony decide to have a 'x' m race. Antony completes the race 14 m ahead of Amar. Akbar finishes 20 m ahead of Antony and 32 m ahead of Amar. What is Amar’s speed? A. 9/10th of Antony's speed B. 5/8th of Akbar's speed C. 14/15...

5. A man starts walking towards East. After walking 75 meters, he turns to his left and walks 25 meters straight. Again he turns to the left, walks a distance of 40 meters straight, again turns to the left and walks a distance of 25 meters. How far is he from the starting point? • 35 m • 50 m • 140 m • 140 m 8. Raj left for his office in a car. He drove 15 km towards North and then 10 km towards West. He then turned to the South and covered 5km. Further he turned to the East and moved 8 km. Finally he turned right and drove 10 km. In which direction is he from his starting point? • West • North • South • South

Given: Speed in 1st day = 40 km/h Speed in 2n day = 50 km/h Late in 1st day = 25 min Late in 2nd day = 10 min Concept used: Distance = Time× speed Calculation: Let the distance of his college from his home be D km and the actual time required to reach his college be t hours According to the question, \(\rm\frac\) ⇒ D = 50 So, distance = 50 km ∴ H is college is 50 km far from his home.
