One morning after sunrise, Edward was standing facing a pole. The shadow of the pole fell exactly to his right. Which direction was he facing?
Answer:
South
- We know that sun rises from the east. The shadow of any object that comes in front of the sun will fall right behind it.
- This means, the sun should be at the left of Edward. The given figure demonstrates the situation:
Sun Edward Pole's Shadow Pole - We can say that since sun is in the east, the pole lies in the south, and so Edward is facing South.
