Facing East, a person turns 180° clockwise, then 90° counter-clockwise. What direction is he facing now?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Initial Direction: East
Rotations:
• Clockwise turn = 180°
• Counter-clockwise turn = 90°
Net rotation: 180° − 90° = 90° (Clockwise)
Turning 90° clockwise from East leads to South.
Therefore, the person is facing South.
