Direction Sense Test Questions and Answers

Answer: A

Correct answer: QP

Working the conditions through: Q and T face north and R faces south; R is next to U, so U faces south too; S is diagonally opposite U and therefore faces north, which leaves P facing south. Q may not be next to S, so the north row runs S, T, Q and the south row P, R, U, with S and U at opposite corners.

S and U occupy one pair of opposite corners; the other pair is held by Q, at the far end of the north row, and P, at the near end of the south row.

Answer: A

Correct answer: T

Working the conditions through: Q and T face north and R faces south; R is next to U, so U faces south too; S is diagonally opposite U and therefore faces north, which leaves P facing south. Q may not be next to S, so the north row runs S, T, Q and the south row P, R, U, with S and U at opposite corners.

The north row runs S, T, Q, so the flat between Q’s and S’s is T’s.

Answer: B

Correct answer: Apple tree is just next to lemon tree.

Clue (b) states outright that lemon stands between mango and apple, so apple is next to lemon in every arrangement that satisfies the information - which is what “definitely true” asks for. The full layout is mango, lemon, apple in one row with banana, guava at the corresponding end of the other and raspberry at its far end, leaving papaya and pomegranate to fill the two remaining places in either order. Because those two are interchangeable, every other statement here - papaya near apple, raspberry relative to pomegranate, pomegranate opposite banana - is true in one filling and false in the other, and so is possible rather than definite.

Answer: C

Correct answer: Papaya or Pomegranate

Lemon stands opposite guava, with mango on one side of it and apple on the other; banana takes the end place beside guava; and raspberry, at the other end of that row, lies diagonally across from mango. That fixes every tree but two - papaya and pomegranate - which fill the remaining places. The tree facing raspberry is therefore papaya or pomegranate, and which of the two cannot be settled.

Answer: A

Correct answer: Mango

Work the clues in order. Lemon sits between mango and apple and directly opposite guava, so the three occupy consecutive places with guava facing lemon. Raspberry is at the end of a line diagonally opposite mango, which places mango at the other end of its row and raspberry at the far corner. Banana is then at the end of the second line immediately beside guava - the position facing mango. So the rows read mango, lemon, apple, and one of papaya or pomegranate against banana, guava, the other of the two, and raspberry, and the tree opposite banana is mango.

Answer: D

Correct answer: South-West

Facing north, a person’s right is east and their left is west. Reading the code, # steps one metre east, $ one metre north, * one metre west and @ one metre south.

X @ B puts B one metre south of X, and B * P puts P one metre west of B. So P lies one metre south and one metre west of X - to X’s south-west.

Answer: B

Correct answer: North-East

Facing north, a person’s right is east and their left is west. Reading the code, # steps one metre east, $ one metre north, * one metre west and @ one metre south.

M # N puts N one metre east of M, and N $ T puts T one metre north of N. So T lies one metre east and one metre north of M - to M’s north-east.

Answer: C

Correct answer: North

Facing north, a person’s right is east and their left is west. Reading the code, # steps one metre east, $ one metre north, * one metre west and @ one metre south.

P # R puts R one metre east of P, R $ A puts A one metre north of R, and A * U puts U one metre west of A. The east and west steps cancel, leaving U one metre due north of P.

Answer: A

The man firstly faces the direction OA. On moving 45 degree clockwise[Please check carefully always if clockwise or anticlockwise], he faces the direction OB.
Now again he moved 180 degree clockwise, now he will be facing OC. From here he moved 270 degree anticlockwise, Finally he is facing OD, which is South west.
