Kunal walks 10 km towards North. From there he walks 6 Km towards South. Then, he walks 3 Km towards east. How far and in which direction is he with reference to his starting point ?

Clearly, Kunal moves from A 10 Km northwards upto B, then moves 6 Km southwards upto C, turns towards east and moves 3 km upto D.
Then AC = (AB-BC) = 4 Km

So Kunal distance from starting point A
\begin{aligned}
AD = \sqrt{AC^2 + CD^2} \\
= \sqrt{4^2+3^2} \\
= \sqrt{25} = 5
\end{aligned}

So AD is 5 Km also with reference to starting point Kunal's direction is North-East.
