One evening, before sunset, Mahesh and Vikrant are standing with their backs to each other in a field. If Vikrant's shadow is cast to the immediate right of Mahesh, then in which direction is Mahesh facing?
A. East
B. South
C. North
D. West
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Before sunset, sun is west, shadow falls east. Vikrant's shadow is east. It falls on Mahesh's immediate right, so Mahesh's right is east. Thus Mahesh faces south. (Vikrant faces north, his shadow east falls to Mahesh's right.)
