Logical Reasoning (Utt. Patwari) Direction Sense

A man is facing West and turns 45° clockwise, 180° clockwise and then turns 270° anticlockwise. Which direction is he facing now?

West

South

South-west

North-west

Assume that the man started at point 1.
He goes 45 degrees clockwise and that means he ends up at point 2.
Then he goes another 180 degrees clockwise and that means he ends up at point 3.
After this he goes 270 degrees anti-clockwise and that means he ends up at point 4.

At point 4 the direction he is facing is between South and West, which is South-West

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
