Q. A person walks 100 m Westward, then turns left and walks 100 m. He then takes a 225° turn clockwise. In which direction is he walking now?

Explanation:

1. Initial Movement:

– The person walks 100 meters Westward.

2. First Turn:

– The person turns left and walks 100 meters.

– Since he was initially walking West, turning left means he is now walking South.

3. Second Turn (225° clockwise):

– Clockwise direction means turning to the right.

– Starting from South, a 225° turn can be broken down as follows:

– 180° turn from South would point him North.

– An additional 45° turn (225° – 180°) from North would point him North-East.

Therefore, after taking a 225° turn clockwise from South, the person is now walking in the North-East direction.

Thus, the correct answer is: d) North-East
