Eight friends A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are placed in this manner.
All are facing outward. If all of them move one position in clockwise direction, then the direction E will be facing is:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → South West
The four lines meet the circle at eight points, the eight directions of the compass (north is up, as the arrow shows), and each friend stands at the point next to his letter:
A north, B north-east, C east, D south-east
E south, F south-west, G west, H north-west
Facing outward, each friend faces the direction of his own point. Moving one place clockwise (the way from A to B), E moves from south to F’s place, south-west, and now faces South-West.
