Detailed Solution & Explanation

Start at O(0,0)\displaystyle O(0, 0).
1. East 30\displaystyle 30 m (30,0)\displaystyle \rightarrow (30, 0).
2. Turn right, walk 40\displaystyle 40 m (30,40)\displaystyle \rightarrow (30, -40).
3. Turn left, walk 30\displaystyle 30 m (60,40)\displaystyle \rightarrow (60, -40).
Final position is South-East (x>0,y<0\displaystyle x > 0, y < 0).
*Discrepancy*: The key lists Option D (South), but the correct direction is South-East (Option C).
Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
