Six houses A, B, C, D, E and F are situated in a colony. E is 60m from D and is in the south. F is 40m from B and is in the south. A is 30m from E and is in the north. F is 50m from A and is in the east. C is 50m from B and is in the west. Find the position of C with respect to A.
A. 40 m south
B. 30 m east
C. 50 m north
D. 40 m north
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Take A as reference. A is 30 m north of E. E is 60 m south of D, so D is 30 m north of A. F is 50 m east of A, so F is at (50,0). F is 40 m south of B, so B is 40 m north of F at (50,40). C is 50 m west of B, so C is at (0,40). Hence C is 40 m north of A.

Question #3
A girl is facing south-east. She turns 900 degrees clockwise, then turns left, then right once, then right once, then 45 degrees clockwise, and then 135 degrees counterclockwise, and then 45 degrees clockwise. Lastly, in which direction is he facing?
