A girl is facing North. She turns 90° in the anticlockwise direction and then 45° in the clockwise direction. Which direction is she facing now?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → North-West
Track the direction she faces after each turn. Clockwise turns go N → NE → E → SE → S → SW → W → NW, 45° a step; anticlockwise turns go the other way round.
Start: facing North
90° anticlockwise (two steps back from North): facing West
45° clockwise (one step on from West): facing North-West
