Answer:

1. Direction words are the action words in the topic and tell you what to do Some examples are: analyse, describe, discuss, justify, compare.

2. One of the four main points of a compass: north, east, south, west.

3. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west (but rarely due east and due west). The shadow tip moves just the opposite. Therefore, the first shadow tip mark is always in the west direction and the second mark in the east direction, EVERYWHERE on earth.

4. The directions other than NORTH , SOUTH , EAST and WEST are termed as sub-directions. They are- 1)NORTH-EAST. 2)NORTH-WEST. 3)SOUTH-EAST

5. A compass is an instrument used for navigation and orientation that shows direction relative to the geographic cardinal directions (or points). ... These numbers allow the compass to show magnetic North azimuths or true North azimuths or bearings, which are commonly stated in this notation.
