A man is facing West. He turns 45\[{}^\circ \] in the clockwise direction and then another 180\[{}^\circ \] in the same direction and then 270\[{}^\circ \] in the anticlockwise direction. Which direction is he facing now?

A)  South                          

B)  North-West       

C)  West                           

D)  South-West

Correct Answer: D

Solution :

: Clearly, the man initially faces in the direction OA. On moving 45\[{}^\circ \] clockwise, he faces in the direction OB. On further moving 180\[{}^\circ \] clockwise, he faces in the direction OC. Finally, on moving 270\[{}^\circ \]anticlockwise, he faces in the direction OD, which is South-West.
