A man walks 10 m south, then turns left and walks 5 m, then turns left and walks 10 m. Where is he relative to start?

A15 m south
B5 m east
C5 m west
D5 m north-east
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. 5 m east
1. Start facing south, walk 10 m south. 2. Left turn from south = east. Walk 5 m east. 3. Left turn from east = north. Walk 10 m north. 4. The two 10 m south and 10 m north legs cancel. 5. Only 5 m east remains. So 5 m east of start. _Source: SSC CGL Reasoning (Direction Sense), standard PYQ patterns_
