South-east

South-west

North​

Answer 1

The bench lies in the North West direction from Philip's starting point.

• According to the given conditions, Philip started towards the north direction, and then proceeded accordingly.

• So we can write note down his movement as-

North( 50m) -----> left turn means moving towards the west(20m)------> right turn means again moving towards the north(10m)
