Complete step by step answer:
The position of Tamil Nadu is at the coordinates of 13.09 degrees North and 80.27 degrees east. The state of Tamil Nadu is bordered by many other states.
To the west of the state lies the state of Kerala. Andhra Pradesh borders it in the north-west. To the extreme north of Tamil Nadu, Andhra- Pradesh is situated. The state is also encircled by the union territory of Puducherry . on the eastern side of Tamil Nadu, we can find the Bay of Bengal ocean. The Bay of Bengal is approximately located at the coordinates of 15 degrees north and 88 degrees east. Hence, we can infer that the extent of Bay of Bengal encompasses the southernmost state of our country India. The northernmost part of the Indian Ocean is synonymous with the Bay of Bengal.
In the northern region of Tamil Nadu, the Eastern Ghats of the Indian Peninsula is found. The Nilgiri Mountains and Meghamalai hills are positioned on its western front. We can locate the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Strait on the south-east of the state of Tamil Nadu. On the extreme southern point of the state, we have the Indian State. There is a maritime border with Sri Lanka also.

Note: Tamil Nadu on its western, southern, and north western sides are hilly areas. The state also possesses the country’s third-largest coastline which is proving to be highly economical for the state as well as the country.
