Track the turns sequentially: North тЖТ Right = East тЖТ Left = North тЖТ Left = West. Only the final turn dictates the facing direction.
Initial Movement
Sunita starts at Point A and moves 5m towards the North. She is now facing North.
Turn 1 and 2
She takes a right turn from North, now facing East. Then she takes a left turn from East, which brings her back to facing North.
Final Turn
From the North-facing position, she takes a final left turn. A left turn from North results in facing West.
A: North is incorrect because it was the direction before the final left turn. B: South is incorrect as it would require two consecutive right turns or a 180-degree change. C: East is incorrect because it was the direction after the first right turn.
D is correct because following the sequence of turns (Right from North leads to East, Left from East leads to North, and the final Left from North leads to West) confirms she is facing West.
When tracking directions, remember: Right turn = 90 degrees clockwise, Left turn = 90 degrees anti-clockwise. Ignoring distances helps you solve the final direction question much faster.
