Solution

Let's break down Rohit's movements:

  1. Rohit starts at his house and walks straight 100 yards. Since the door of his house is towards the east, he is walking towards the east.

  2. He then turns right and walks 100 yards. When you turn right from east, you face south. So, he walks 100 yards towards the south.

  3. He then turns left and walks 50 yards. When you turn left from south, you face east. So, he walks 50 yards towards the east.

Now, to determine Rohit's final position relative to his starting point:

  • He walked 100 yards east, then 50 yards east again, so he is 150 yards to the east of his starting point.
  • He also walked 100 yards south.

Therefore, Rohit is in the southeast direction from his starting point.
