Question

A person facing North turns 90 degrees in clockwise direction and then 270 degrees in counter-
clockwise direction. Which direction is he facing now?​

Answer 1

Answer:

He is facing towards south direction

Answer 2

At the start, the person is facing in the North direction. On his/her left is west and on his/her right is east direction.

• When he/she takes a 90 degrees clockwise turn, they will be facing in the east direction.
• The next step is moving 270 degrees in the anti-clockwise direction from the east direction. In the anti-clockwise direction, the person will turn in the opposite direction.
• The clockwise direction is north-east-south-west and the anticlockwise direction is north-west-south-east.
• Hence he/she will face towards the south direction.
