If south-east becomes east, north-east becomes north, what will west become? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

If south-east becomes east, north-east becomes north, what will west become?
A. North-west
B. South
C. South-east
D. South-west
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Directions are rotated 45° clockwise: SE -> E, NE -> N, so west (270°) + 45° = 315° = NW? Wait, if SE (135°) becomes east (90°), it's actually -45° shift (anticlockwise). Let's check: SE to East is 45° anticlockwise. So west (270°) - 45° = 225° which is South-west. So answer South-west.

A man faces south. He turns 180° right, then 90° right. Which direction?
A. South
B. West

Correct Answer: Option C
