Answer:

Let’s break down Sabarinathan’s movements step by step:

  1. He starts facing east.
  2. He turns 80° clockwise. This means he turns right by 80°.
  3. He then turns 200° anticlockwise. This means he turns left by 200°.
  4. Finally, he turns 110° clockwise. This means he turns right by 110°.

Adding up the rotations:

  • 80° clockwise
  • 200° anticlockwise (which is equivalent to 160° clockwise, since 360° - 200° = 160°)
  • 110° clockwise

Total clockwise rotation = 80° + 160° + 110° = 350°

Since 360° is a full circle, rotating by 350° in the clockwise direction is equivalent to rotating by 10° in the anticlockwise direction.

So, after all the rotations, Sabarinathan is facing 10° in the anticlockwise direction from the east, which is slightly northeast of east.
