Question

If you are standing facing the rising sun, which direction will be to your right
A. North
B. East
C. South
D. West

Answer 1

Hint: The four cardinal points are called north, south, east and west. The direction of the rising sun and setting sun helps us to determine the other direction as well.

Complete answer:
Sun plays a key role to determine the direction in absence of a compass. The four cardinal points are as follows: north, south, east, and west. The sun rises from the east and sets in the west. Since the sun rises from the east the northeastern state of India witnesses sunrise first as compared to other states.
In order to determine the direction, the location of the sun can play a crucial role. Since the sun rises from the east, the location of the sun during the morning is towards the east.
If the sun is compared in the afternoon by the morning sun, it moves a little west since the sun sets in the west.
During the morning if you stretch your left arm making your left arm pointing towards the sun. Your left-hand points towards the east. If you point towards the west, you are now, that is, your front face is facing south and the back is facing north.
If you stand facing the rising sun which is facing east, to your left is north, to the right south, and behind you is west.
So, the correct answer is Option C.

Note: If you are standing facing the rising sun which is in the east, the direction towards the right is south. The left is north and behind you is west. Sun acts as a natural source to determine the direction in the absence of a compass.
