Question

I am facing east. I turn 100$^\circ$ in the clockwise direction and then 45$^\circ$ in the anticlockwise direction. Which direction am I facing now?

• A. North-West
• B. North-East
• C. South-West
• D. South-East

Hint:

Use angle-based direction calculations with 90$^\circ$ segments to track turning. East → South = 90$^\circ$ clockwise.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Start facing East
Step 2: Turn 100$^\circ$ clockwise
From East, 90$^\circ$ clockwise → South, plus 10$^\circ$ more → slightly East of South
New direction = 100$^\circ$ clockwise from East 
Step 3: Turn 45$^\circ$ anticlockwise from current
Move 45$^\circ$ back from that position → ends up at South-East
So final direction = South-East
