LectureNotes said one morning after sunrise Sunak and Murthy were talking to each other face to face at Dalphin Crossing. If Murthy’s shadow was exactly to the right of Sunak, which direction was Murthy facing?

Answer: To determine the direction Murthy was facing, we need to consider the position of the sun and the resulting shadows. Here’s a step-by-step analysis:

  1. Sunrise Direction: The sun rises in the east.
  2. Shadow Direction: At sunrise, shadows are cast towards the west.

Given that Murthy’s shadow was exactly to the right of Sunak:

  • If Sunak and Murthy were facing each other, and Murthy’s shadow was to the right of Sunak, we need to determine their respective positions relative to the east and west directions.

Let’s break it down:

  • Since it is morning, the sun is in the east.
  • If Murthy’s shadow is to the right of Sunak, it means Sunak’s right side is towards the west.
  • Therefore, Sunak must be facing north for his right side to be towards the west.

Since they are facing each other:

  • Murthy must be facing south.

Thus, Murthy was facing south.
