Answer:

Directions are indicated on the maps by the North-South line, with the arrow head pointing towards the North. If the north-south line with the arrow is not drawn on the map, then the top of the map is taken as the north and the bottom of the map as the south; the right is the east and the left is the west direction.

Answer:

Every Map has found major directions north, South, east and west. The top of a map shows the north direction, while the bottom shoes the south direction.

To Your right is the east and to your left is the west.

Apart from these four major directions, there are four sub - directions as well.

They are :---

  • North-East (NE) : The Direction between the North and the east.
  • North-west (NW) : The direction between the North and the west.
  • South-East (SE) : The direction between the south and the east.
  • South-West (SW) : The direction between the south and the west.

Thus, a sub - direction is a midway between any two major directions. Thus, a place which is not exactly in one of the major directions, may be in a sub - direction.
