A man is facing West. He turns `45^(@)` in the clockwise direction and then another `180^(@)` in the same direction and then `270^(@)` in the anticlockwise direction. Which direction is he facing now ?

A

South

B

North-west

C

West

D

South-west

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Clearly, the man initially faces in the direction OA. On moving 45° clockwise, he faces in the direction OB. On further moving 180° clockwise, he faces in the direction OC. Finally, on moving 270° anti-clockwise, he faces in the direction OD, which is South-west. Hence, the answer is
