Verbal Reasoning - Direction Sense Test - Discussion

I think Option D (south) is the correct answer.

Option C should be the right answer.

@All.

For me, SOUTH should be the answer because they are facing each other during one morning means Uday is facing SOUTH.

South is the right answer.

I think D is the right answer.

Since the sun rises in the east, shadows always fall toward the west in the morning. For a shadow to appear exactly to the left or right, the person cannot be facing east or west, because in those directions the shadow would fall directly behind them. Therefore, they must be facing either north or south.

Now, if Udai were facing south, Vishal (standing opposite him, facing north) would have his shadow fall to Udai’s right. But if Udai is facing north, then Vishal (standing opposite him, facing south) will have his shadow fall exactly to Udai’s left.

Hence, Udai must be facing North.

The answer is because both are facing each other, so, the rays are from the east, east is Udai's right side, and west is on the left side when Vishal shadow fall on the left side of Udai then he is facing towards south.

Here, it says in the morning , so the sunrises from the East. So the shadow will be in the west. So in the question, Vishal's shadow will be in the west, which is Udai's left side. Hence, the answer is north.

Here the direction assumption matters.

According to the compass, the North direction will be upward side not on downward side. Sunrises on the East side so the shadow will be Westside. In that sense, Udai was facing towards the North only.

South is the right answer.
