Direction-sense: three consecutive right turns after moving North: A man starts, walks 4 miles North, turns right 2 miles, turns right 2 miles, turns right 2 miles. In which direction is he now facing?

Introduction / Context:
We are asked for the current facing after a sequence of right turns, not the net displacement.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Initial facing: North.
• Right from North → East.
• Right from East → South.
• Right from South → West.

Concept / Approach:
Each right turn is a 90-degree clockwise rotation of the current heading. Distances do not affect the facing outcome.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:
Three rights from any heading equal one left from the original (+270° = -90°), so North → West.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
North/East/South ignore the cumulative rotation.

Common Pitfalls:
Mixing up facing with location; the path forms a rectangle but the question is only about orientation.

Final Answer:
West
