Explanation:

Using the given information we can create a following diagram:

Applying the Pythagoras' theorem, we get
(The shortest distance)² = 24² + 10² = 676
Therefore, the shortest distance = Under root of 676 = 26 m
In the above figure it is clear that the shortest distance is 26 m and the direction in which he is from the starting point is Northwest.
