Q70
ReasoningDirection Sense
One morning after sunrise Bikram and Shailesh were standing in a lawn with their back towards each other. Bikram's shadow fell exactly towards left-hand side. Which direction shailesh was facing?
  1. a.East
  2. b.West
  3. c.North
  4. d.South

Answer: (D) South

After sunrise, shadows fall towards the West. If Bikram's shadow falls to his left, then Bikram is facing North (because standing North, left is West). Since Bikram and Shailesh have their backs to each other, Shailesh faces the opposite direction — South.
