Option 1: Northwest
Option 2: Northeast
Option 3: North
Option 4: South
Correct Answer: North
Solution : According to the instructions given, the diagram is as follows –
As the sun sets in the West in the evening, i.e. 5 p.m., the shadow will be formed in the opposite direction of the sun. Here, the shadow is formed to the left of the Ketaki, so the right side of the Ketaki is facing the sun. Therefore, Ketaki is moving in the South direction to reach her home.
So, the school is in the north direction from her home. Hence, the third option is correct.
