સમજૂતી
Horizontal gap = 1/√2 ≈ 0.707 km; vertical gap = 4 − 0.707 + 2 = 5.293 km; distance ≈ 5.34 km.
- (A) સાચો
Correct: with O at origin, N = (0.707, −0.707), M = (0.707, 3.293), P = (0, −2); MP = √(0.5 + 28.02) ≈ 5.34 km.
- (B) ખોટો
Wrong: too large.
- (C) ખોટો
Wrong: this is roughly MP², not MP.
- (D) ખોટો
Wrong: 5.34 km is correct.
