I am getting the answer as south-east.
1) X(west) --------------------------Y (y is east of x) means x is on west.
|
2) Z is North of x -------------------------direct Y is for P (in which direction of Y is P) so if you go Y to P (south-east)
|
3) P is south of Z.
1) X(west) --------------------------Y (y is east of x) means x is on west.
|
2) Z is North of x -------------------------direct Y is for P (in which direction of Y is P) so if you go Y to P (south-east)
|
3) P is south of Z.

As per my view,
=> with respect to Y.
Imagine that.
=> The Y is in south.
=> Then the P position must west to Y.

They were written right answer ie none of these. But it could be in south west or north-west.

Y is East of x.
So Y is in East direction.
X is in West.
Z is South of x.
P is South of z.
Then Southwest is the answer.
So Y is in East direction.

Z is South of x.
P is South of z.
