Point A is 11 m to the west of point B. Point C is 8 m to the south of point B. Point C is 1 m to the west of point J. Point J is 12 m to the south of point H. Point D is 11 m to the east of point J. Point E is 6 m to the south of point D. Point F is 17 m to the west of point E. Point G is to the north of point F and to the west of point H. What is the shortest distance between point G and point F?

1. 17 m
2. 18 m
3. 19 m
4. 21 m

Correct answer: 18 m

Solution

By assigning coordinates, the relative positions of all points can be determined. From the given constraints, point G ends up 1 m north of point F and aligned horizontally so that the straight-line distance between G and F is 18 m.
