The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of how many right angles you make when facing South and turning clockwise to East, we can break it down step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Starting Direction**: - You start facing South. 2. **Understand the Directions**: - The four main directions are North, East, South, and West. - When you face South, the directions are arranged as follows: - North is 90 degrees counterclockwise from East. - East is 90 degrees clockwise from South. - West is 90 degrees counterclockwise from South. 3. **Turn Clockwise**: - When you turn clockwise from South, you first reach West. - This is the first right angle turn. 4. **Continue Turning Clockwise**: - From West, you turn again clockwise to reach North. - This is the second right angle turn. 5. **Final Turn to East**: - From North, you turn clockwise to reach East. - This is the third right angle turn. 6. **Count the Right Angles**: - You made a total of three right angle turns: - South to West (1 right angle) - West to North (2 right angles) - North to East (3 right angles) ### Conclusion: - Therefore, the total number of right angles made when turning from South to East is **3**.
