Question
Which direction will you face if you start facing west and make `3/4` of a revolution anti-clockwise?
Solution
If we revolve one complete round in either clockwise or anti-clockwise direction, then we will revolve by 360º and the two adjacent directions will be at 90º or `1/4` of a complete revolution away from each other.
If we start facing West and make `3/4` of a revolution anti-clockwise, then we will face the North direction.
