If North-East becomes North, South-East becomes East and so on, what will West become?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → South-West
Neighbouring directions on a compass are 45° apart. The two examples show by how much, and which way, every direction has turned:
North-East becomes North: North is 45° anticlockwise from North-East
South-East becomes East: East is again 45° anticlockwise from South-East
So every direction turns 45° anticlockwise. Going anticlockwise from West, the next direction is South-West
