Four students P, Q, R & S are playing carrom. In this game P makes a pair with R and Q makes a pair with S. S is to the right of R whose face is towards West. Which direction is S facing?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → South
In carrom, partners sit opposite each other and every player faces the board, at its centre.
R faces West, so R sits on the East side of the board, and his partner P sits opposite, on the West side, facing East.
For a person facing West, the right hand points North, so S, to the right of R, sits on the North side.
Sitting on the North side and facing the centre of the board, S faces South; S’s partner Q sits on the South side, facing North.
