Understanding Direction Changes and Turns

This question asks us to track Ravi's movement based on a series of turns he makes, starting from walking towards North. We need to determine his final direction after all the turns.

Let's break down Ravi's movement step by step:

Tracking Ravi's Walking Path

• Starting Direction: Ravi starts by walking towards North.
• First Turn: He turns to the right. A right turn usually means a 90-degree clockwise turn. From North, a 90-degree clockwise turn leads to the East direction.
• Second Turn: Then he turns to the left. A left turn usually means a 90-degree anti-clockwise turn. From East, a 90-degree anti-clockwise turn leads him back to the North direction.
• Third Turn: Finally, he turns to the right at an angle of 45 degrees. His current direction after the second turn is North. Turning 45 degrees to the right (clockwise) from North means he is now walking in the direction exactly between North and East.

Determining the Final Direction

When someone walks in a direction that is exactly 45 degrees clockwise from North, that direction is known as North-east.

So, after starting North, turning right (to East), turning left (back to North), and then turning 45 degrees right from North, Ravi is walking towards the North-east direction.

Therefore, the final direction Ravi is walking in is North-east.
