Question

I am facing west. I turn 450 in the clockwise direction and then 1800 in the same direction and then 2700 anticlockwise. Which direction am I facing now?

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

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Starting direction: You are facing, west.
\(\rightarrow\) First turn: You turn 45° clockwise.
\(\rightarrow\) From west, a 45° clockwise turn puts you in the northwest direction.
\(\rightarrow\) Second turn: You turn 180° clockwise.
\(\rightarrow\) From northwest, a 180° clockwise turn will bring you to the southeast direction.
\(\rightarrow\) Third turn: You turn 270° anticlockwise.
\(\rightarrow\) From southeast, a 270° anticlockwise turn will take you to the southwest direction.

Therefore, after all the turns, you are facing southwest
