The total displacement of the person walking from point A to point B is 300 yards.

As shown in the figure we can conclude that the required method to calculate the total displacement is the Pythagoras theorem.

<h3>Pythagoras theorem in brief :</h3>

According to the Pythagorean Theorem, the square that represents the hypotenuse, or side of a right triangle that faces the right angle, is equal to the total of the squares on the triangle's legs.(or, in popular algebraic notation, a^2 + b^2 = c^2).

<h3>Calculation: </h3>

Let,

a = 500

b=  300

Hence by using Pythagoras' theorem

Total displacement of the person = \sqrt{500^{2}  + 300^{2} } = \sqrt{900000} = 300

Thus the total displacement of the person from starting point is 300 yards.
