The door of Aman's house faces the East. From the back side of his house, he walks straight 100 meters, then turns to the left and walks 100 metre again. Finally, he turns towards left and stops after walking 50 meters. Now, Aman is in which direction from the starting point?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → South-West
Each turn is taken from the direction he is facing at that moment:
The door faces East, so the back of the house faces West; he walks 100 m West.
Facing West, a left turn is South: 100 m South.
Facing South, a left turn is East: 50 m East.
He is now \(100-50=50\) m West and 100 m South of the starting point, so he is to its South-West.
