A is to the right of B. B is in front of C. C is to the left of D. Where is D relative to A?
ABehind A
BIn front of A
CTo the right of A
DTo the left of A
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Behind A
1. Set B at origin facing north (so C is south of B, A is east of B).
2. C is at (0, -1); D is to the right of C, so D = (1, -1).
3. A is at (1, 0).
4. D = (1, -1) is one step south of A.
5. South of A is 'behind' A given A faces north.
6. So D is behind A.
