Observe the motion of a car as shown in the figure and answer the following questions : Compare the distance covered by the car through the path ABC and AC. What do you observe? Which path gives the shortest distance to reach D from A? Is it the path ABCD or the path ACD or the path AD?

Answer»

SOLUTION :1.AB+BC
ABC=4m+3m=7m
AC=5 m
2.AB+BC+CD
ABCD=4 m+ 3m + 4m =11 m
ACD=AC+CD=5 m +4m =9 m
AD=3 m
`therefore` The shortest distance to REACH D from A will be AD, that is 3 m .
