Which direction will you face if you start facing:
(a) East and make \(\frac{1}{2}\) of a revolution clockwise?
(b) East and make \(\frac{11}{2}\) of a revolution clockwise?
(c) West and makes \(\frac{3}{4}\) of a revolution, clockwise?
(d) South and make one full revolution?
(Should we specify clockwise or anti-clockwise for this last question? Why not?)

Solution and Explanation
(a) West
(b) West
(c) North
(d) South (For answer (d), it is immaterial whether we turn clockwise or anticlockwise, because one full revolution will bring us back to the original position)
