L is East of A. B is South of L. R is West of B. K is halfway between R and B and is directly South of A. For K to be directly South of A, R must extend further West than A. Since B is directly South of L, and R is West of B, R is to the South-West of L.
The door of Rohit's house faces east, from the backyard of the house he walks straight 100 yards, then turns right and walks 100 yards and then turns left and stops after walking 50 yards. What is the direction of the place from where Rohit started?
Explanation:
Since the house faces East, the backyard faces West. Rohit walks 100 yards West, turns right (North) for 100 yards, and turns left (West) for 50 yards. He ends up North-West of his house. Therefore, from his final position, the house (starting point) is to the South-East.
