Correct Answer

✅ Option c — South

All Options:

  • ANorth
  • BWest
  • CSouth
  • DEast

Detailed Solution & Explanation

Start at A(0,0)\displaystyle A(0, 0). Let step size be 1\displaystyle 1 unit:
1. B is East of A →B(1,0)\displaystyle \rightarrow B(1, 0).
2. C is South of B →C(1,−1)\displaystyle \rightarrow C(1, -1).
3. D is West of C →D(0,−1)\displaystyle \rightarrow D(0, -1).
4. E is South of D →E(0,−2)\displaystyle \rightarrow E(0, -2).
5. F is East of E →F(1,−2)\displaystyle \rightarrow F(1, -2).
6. G is South of F →G(1,−3)\displaystyle \rightarrow G(1, -3).
7. H is West of G →H(0,−3)\displaystyle \rightarrow H(0, -3).
H is at (0,−3)\displaystyle (0, -3), which is South of A.
*Discrepancy*: The key lists Option D (East), but the correct direction is South (Option C).
Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
