Question

Ram goes North, turn right, then goes right again and then goes to left. In which direction Ram is now?

1. A. EAST (Correct answer)
2. B. SOUTH
3. C. NORTH
4. D. WEST

Correct Answer

Option A — EAST

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is EAST.

Key Points

• This is a direction sense question solved by tracking each turn on a compass.
• Ram starts by walking towards the North.
• When facing north, a right turn makes him face East.
• From the east, another right turn makes him face South.
• Finally, from the south, a left turn makes him face East again.
• So the sequence of facing directions is: North → East → South → East.
• Ram's final facing direction is therefore East.

Exam Tip

• remember the fixed rule that from North, right = East and left = West, but from South the rule reverses: right = West and left = East.
• Drawing a small compass rose in the margin and rotating it turn by turn prevents the most common error in direction-sense questions, which is applying the north-facing rule while actually facing south.
