Sridhar said:   1 decade ago
Yes, it seems incorrect. because there is no indication of any angle. So how it will be south-west. It should be South. So the correct answer should be B.

Direction of movement remains south as he is moving parallel to his direction of movement of 5 kms south had he turned at 45 deg angle after turning left he would have walked south west so Sundar you are wrong and Sridhar is correct the answer is B
