Initial Movement
Rohan starts walking from his house towards the South for 10m. He is moving south and facing south.
Turning Left
He takes a left turn. Since he was facing South, his left hand points towards the East direction, so he is now facing East.
A: South is wrong because he turned left after walking south. C: North is wrong because a left turn from south is east, not north. D: West is wrong because west is a right turn from south.
B is correct because facing South and taking a left turn makes him face towards the East.
Always visualize yourself standing in the direction of movement to quickly determine left and right turns without rotating your paper.
