  1. North-East
  2. South-East
  3. South-West
  4. North-West

Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: South-East

Explanation: ✅ Correct Answer: B) South-East 📚 Explanation: Step by step solving: 1. Standard directions: North is 0°, North-East is 45°, East is 90°, South-East is 135°, South is 180°, West is 270°. 2. South-East (135°) becomes North (0°). This is an exact anti-clockwise rotation of 135 degrees. 3. Check the second condition: North-East (45°) rotated anti-clockwise by 135° becomes West (270°). The logic holds perfectly. 4. To find the new position of West (270°), rotate it anti-clockwise by 135°. 270 - 135 = 135°, which is South-East.
