A man is facing west. He turns 35° in the clockwise direction and then another 190° in the same direction and then 270° in the anticlockwise direction. Which direction is he facing now?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Net rotation =35°+190°−270°=−45°= 35° + 190° - 270° = -45°, that is 45°45° anticlockwise.

Turning 45°45° anticlockwise from west moves him from west towards south, so he faces south-west.
