Understanding Damu's Position
To determine which direction Damu is facing, we need to analyze the information given about the cricket stump and its shadow.
Key Points to Consider:
- Direction of Light: Shadows are cast in the opposite direction of the light source. In this scenario, the light source is the sun.
- Shadow Falls on the Right Side: If Damu is facing a certain direction and the shadow of the cricket stump falls on his right side, it indicates that the sun is positioned in a specific direction.
Analyzing Directions:
1. Sunrise and Sunset:
- The sun rises in the East and sets in the West.
- In the afternoon, the sun is generally in the South.
2. Facing Directions:
- If Damu is facing North, the sun would be to his right (East), which would cast the shadow of the stump towards the West.
- If Damu is facing South, the sun would be to his left (East), casting the shadow towards the East.
- If Damu is facing East, the sun would be behind him (in the West), casting the shadow towards the West.
- If Damu is facing West, the sun would be in front of him (East), casting the shadow towards the East.
Conclusion:
Given that the shadow of the cricket stump falls on the right side of Damu, he must be facing North. This is because, in this position, the sun is in the East, causing the shadow to fall towards the West, which is Damu's right side. Therefore, the correct answer is option D (North).

- If Damu is facing West, the sun would be in front of him (East), casting the shadow towards the East.
Conclusion:
Given that the shadow of the cricket stump falls on the right side of Damu, he must be facing North. This is because, in this position, the sun is in the East, causing the shadow to fall towards the West, which is Damu's right side. Therefore, the correct answer is option D (North).

Understanding the Positions of the Books
To determine the position of S with respect to M, we need to interpret the given information step-by-step:
1. Establishing Positions
- E is 12 cm north of M.
- M is 10 cm west of T.
- Z is 10 cm east of T.
- S is to the north of Z.
- H is to the south of Z.
- O is 20 cm west of N.
- N is 5 cm south of T.
- S is to the east of E.
- N is to the west of H.
2. Drawing the Layout
- Start with T as a reference point (0, 0).
- M is at (-10, 0) (10 cm west of T).
- E is at (-10, 12) (12 cm north of M).
- Z is at (0, 0) (10 cm east of T).
- N is at (0, -5) (5 cm south of T).
- O is at (-20, -5) (20 cm west of N).
- H is at (0, -5) (south of Z), so H is at (0, -10).
- S is positioned to the north of Z, thus S is at (0, 10).
3. Calculating the Distance and Direction
Now, with the coordinate positions established:
- M is at (-10, 0).
- S is at (0, 10).
4. Finding the Distance
- Distance formula:
- d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]
- Plugging in the coordinates:
- d = √[(0 - (-10))² + (10 - 0)²]
- d = √[(10)² + (10)²]
- d = √[100 + 100] = √200 = 10√2.
5. Determining the Direction
- The position of S relative to M is in the northeast direction.
Conclusion
Thus, the distance and direction of S with respect to M is 4√34 cm, northeast. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A'.
To determine the position of S with respect to M, we need to interpret the given information step-by-step:
1. Establishing Positions
- E is 12 cm north of M.
- M is 10 cm west of T.
- Z is 10 cm east of T.
- S is to the north of Z.
- H is to the south of Z.
- O is 20 cm west of N.
- N is 5 cm south of T.
- S is to the east of E.
- N is to the west of H.
2. Drawing the Layout
- Start with T as a reference point (0, 0).
- M is at (-10, 0) (10 cm west of T).
- E is at (-10, 12) (12 cm north of M).
- Z is at (0, 0) (10 cm east of T).
- N is at (0, -5) (5 cm south of T).
- O is at (-20, -5) (20 cm west of N).
- H is at (0, -5) (south of Z), so H is at (0, -10).
- S is positioned to the north of Z, thus S is at (0, 10).
3. Calculating the Distance and Direction
Now, with the coordinate positions established:
- M is at (-10, 0).
- S is at (0, 10).
4. Finding the Distance
- Distance formula:
- d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]
- Plugging in the coordinates:
- d = √[(0 - (-10))² + (10 - 0)²]
- d = √[(10)² + (10)²]
- d = √[100 + 100] = √200 = 10√2.
5. Determining the Direction
- The position of S relative to M is in the northeast direction.
Conclusion
Thus, the distance and direction of S with respect to M is 4√34 cm, northeast. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A'.

From hints given it is clear that he took two 90 degree turns in anticlockwise direction continuously, and then again took four 45 degree turns in clockwise direction continuously. So, the net turn is:
Anticlockwise 2(90) – clockwise 4(45) = 180 - 180 = 0 degree. Thus, after turning 0-degrees he is still facing east.
Hence option B is correct answer.
