Li went for a mountain - bike ride in a relatively flat wooded area. She rode for 6 km in one direction and then turned and pedaled 16 km in another. Finally she turned in the direction of her starting point and rode 8km. When she stopped, was it possible that Li was back at her starting point? Explain.

No because let's say she went 6 km to the left, then turned and went in the direction of her starting point but continued past it for 10 km, if she rode 8 km she would still be 2 km away from her starting point.

is this the correct answer?

I'm not 100% because it doesn't tell you which direction she goes in when she turns so I would ask someone else to be sure.
