Direction Sense · Question 36 of 67

Question 36

HardOriginal question

In a game, directions are renamed as if seen in a mirror lying along the east–west line: north is called south, south is called north, while east and west keep their names. The in-between directions follow the same rule. What is north-east called?

CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. North-east is made of north and east.

  2. North becomes south; east stays east.

  3. So north-east becomes south-east.

Worth noting

South-west is a half turn, which would also swap east and west. A mirror changes only the part of the direction across the mirror line.
