The door of Bhawna's house faces the West. From the back of her house, she walks 35 meter straight, then turns left and walks 50 meter. Finally, she turns left and stops after walking 50 meter. Now, Bhawna is in which direction from the starting point?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → North-West
The door faces west, so the back of the house faces east, and the first 35 m are walked eastward. Turning left brings her to face north for 50 m, and turning left again brings her to face west for another 50 m.
Reckoning from the start she is 50 − 35 = 15 m to the west and 50 m to the north, so her position is to the north-west of where she began.
