Hint 2 of 2
The answer is the overlap: outside the 5 m strip along the hedge and inside the 5 m circle around the tree.
Show solution
Approach: intersect the two distance conditions
- “At least 5 m from the hedge” removes a 5 m strip next to the hedge.
- “No more than 5 m from the tree” keeps a disc of radius 5 m around the tree.
- The valid spot is where both hold: the part of the tree's disc lying beyond the hedge strip.
- The picture matching this overlap is (B).
