Answer with explanation:

Distance traveled by Manny =3 miles

It is given that, → Reference point= Ending Point

So, the path of Manny must be a closed path, because in a Closed path total displacement is equal to Zero.

→The closed path can be in the shape of any polygon, that is from

Triangle, to Any Quadrilateral, .....to Any Polygon.

≡⇒And, reference Point can be taken as ,Any of the Vertices of Polygon,that vertex will be also, Ending Point.
