Study Case : Q. 26 to 30

On Annual Sports Day of a school, lines have been drawn with lime powder at a distance of 1 m each in the rectangular shaped school ground PLAY. 80 plastic cones have been placed at a distance of 1 m from each other along PY as shown in figure.

Pushpendra runs \[\frac{1}{4}th\] the distance PY on the 3rd line and post a yellow flag. Pankaj runs \[\frac{1}{5}th\] the distance PY of the 7th line asnd posts a blue flag.

Based on the given situation, answer the following questions:

The coordinates of the yellow flag is:

A) \[(20,3)\]

B) \[(3,20)\]

C) \[(80,3)\]

D) \[(3,80)\]

Correct Answer: B

Solution :

\[\frac{1}{4}th\] the distance \[PY=\frac{80}{4}m=20m\]

\[\therefore \]Coordinates of yellow flag \[=(3,20)\]

So, option [b] is correct.
