Explanation:
Check attachment for solution.
Generally the movement of the knight is L, i.e (2,1), (1,2),(-1,2),(1,-2) etc.
So using Pythagoras theorem
x^2+y^2=1^2+2^2
x^2+y^2=5
Then, the knight will make one movement when the displacement is √5.
So let take a look at other positions
(1,0),(0,1),(-1,0), (0,-1).
Then, for us to have this kind of movement, the knight has to make 3 movements.
When the displacement is 1, then it will make 3 movement.
Let examine other positions
(2,2) or(-2,-2) or (2,-2) or (-2,2)
When the displacement is √8
Then, the movement of the knight is 4.
Let examine other points
(2,0) or (0,2) or (-2,0) or (0,-2)
When the displacement is 2.
The knight make 2 movement
