An ant had to travel from one corner of a room to diagonally
opposite corner. It can walk on walls, floor and roof only.
How will you find the shortest path for this ant ?

Answer Posted / dhruv saksena

The ant will walk to the midpoint of the edge touching the corner opposite diagonally on the floor. From the mid point it will travel directly to its destination corner. this is the shortest distance possible for it to travel.

This can be calculated using a combination of differentiation and the Pythagoras theorem, it was in my test.
