Question
I am facing north-west. I turn 90 degree in the clockwise direction. Then 180 degree in the anti-clockwise direction and then another 90 degree in the same direction. Which direction am I facing now?
Solution
Let's break this down:
-
You are initially facing north-west.
-
A 90 degree turn in the clockwise direction from north-west will have you facing north-east.
-
A 180 degree turn in the anti-clockwise direction from north-east will have you facing south-west.
-
Finally, a 90 degree turn in the anti-clockwise direction from south-west will have you facing south-east.
So, you are now facing south-east.
