But to get selected, you must clear the computer-based exam first. In the Reasoning section, one topic that helps you score full marks is <strong>Direction and Distance<\/strong>. Many students get confused in the exam hall. They mix up &#8220;Left&#8221; and &#8220;Right&#8221; or get lost while calculating the distance. <strong>But here is the secret:<\/strong> You don&#8217;t need a real compass to solve these questions. You just need a simple diagram. Whether the question asks about a man walking North or a shadow falling in the West, the logic is always the same. If you practice the right patterns, you can solve these questions in 10 seconds. To help you prepare, we have collected the most important Direction questions from previous exams and made a <strong>Free PDF<\/strong>.

A boy walks 5 km towards the East. Then he turns right and walks 3 km. Then he turns right again and walks 5 km. In which direction is he now from the starting point?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) South<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) North<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (b) South<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: He goes East (Right on paper), turns Right (Down), turns Right (West). He comes back to the same vertical line. He is now exactly below the starting point, which is South.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q2. Sita starts from her house and walks 2 km towards North. Then she turns right and walks 2 km. Then she turns right again and walks 2 km. What is the distance between her current position and her house?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) 4 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) 2 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) 0 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) 1 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (b) 2 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: She moves up 2 km, right 2 km, and down 2 km. The vertical distance cancels out. The horizontal distance remains 2 km.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q3. One morning after sunrise, Rahul was standing facing a pole. The shadow of the pole fell exactly to his left. Which direction was Rahul facing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) South<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) North<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (c) North<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: In the morning, Sun is in East -&gt; Shadow is in West. If the shadow (West) is to Rahul&#8217;s Left, then Rahul must be facing North.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q4. A man is facing West. He turns 45 degrees clockwise, then 180 degrees clockwise, and then 270 degrees anti-clockwise. Which direction is he facing now?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) South-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) North-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) South<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (a) South-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: Total Clockwise = 45 + 180 = 225. Total Anti-clockwise = 270. Net turn = 270 &#8211; 225 = 45 degrees Anti-clockwise. Facing West, turning 45\u00b0 Anti-clockwise leads to South-West.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q5. Point P is 10m to the West of Point Q. Point R is 10m to the North of Point Q. In which direction is Point R from Point P?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) North-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) North-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) South-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) South-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (a) North-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: P is West of Q. R is North of Q. So R is above and to the right of P. That direction is North-East.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q6. Ravi travels 8 km towards North. Then he turns left and travels 6 km. How far is he from the starting point?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) 14 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) 10 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) 12 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) 2 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (b) 10 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: This forms a right-angled triangle. Height=8, Base=6. Hypotenuse = sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = sqrt{64+36} = sqrt{100} = 10 km.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q7. A dog runs 20 meters towards East and turns to the right, runs 10 meters and turns to the right, runs 9 meters and again turns to the left, runs 5 meters and then turns to the left, runs 12 meters and finally turns to the left and runs 6 meters. Now which direction is the dog facing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) North<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) South<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (a) North<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: Don&#8217;t draw the whole distance. Just track turns: Start East -&gt; Right (South) -&gt; Right (West) -&gt; Left (South) -&gt; Left (East) -&gt; Left (North). Final direction is North.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q8. If &#8216;South&#8217; becomes &#8216;North-East&#8217;, then &#8216;West&#8217; will become:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) South-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) North-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) South-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (a) South-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: South to North-East is a 135\u00b0 Anti-clockwise turn. Move West by 135\u00b0 Anti-clockwise. It lands on South-East.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q9. At 4:30 PM, if the minute hand points towards East, in which direction does the hour hand point?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) North-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) South-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) North-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) South-West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (a) North-East<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: At 4:30, minute hand is at 6 (Down\/South). But question says it points East (90\u00b0 Anti-clockwise shift). Hour hand is between 4 and 5 (South-East). Shift it 90\u00b0 Anti-clockwise -&gt; North-East.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q10. Five friends are sitting in a circle facing the center. A is to the immediate left of B. C is between B and D. Who is to the immediate right of B?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) C<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(b) D<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(c) A<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d) Cannot be determined<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Answer: (a) C<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Logic: Facing center. A is Left of B. C is between B and D. So the order is A-B-C-D. Immediate right of B is C.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/ssc-gd-constable-test-series\/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fs1.practicemock.com%2Fexams%2F%3Fc%3Ddashboard%26i%3Dssc%26dl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.practicemock.com%252Fpricing%252Fmarketing%252Ffiles%252Fpdf%252Fdirection-and-distance-questions-for-ssc-gd.pdf&amp;ref=15036\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Download the Free PDF of Direction and Distance Questions for SSC GD<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 Preparation Tips to Master Direction Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t need to be a navigator to solve these questions. You just need a systematic approach. Don&#8217;t rely on mental calculations; your brain can play tricks on you under pressure. Here are 5 simple tips to help you master Direction and Distance questions for the SSC GD exam:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Draw the &#8220;+&#8221; Sign:<\/strong> As soon as you start, draw a small Plus sign on your paper. Mark <strong>N<\/strong> (Up), <strong>S<\/strong> (Down), <strong>E<\/strong> (Right), and <strong>W<\/strong> (Left). This serves as your compass and prevents silly mistakes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Right is Clockwise:<\/strong> Many students get confused about which way to turn. Just remember: <strong>Right Turn = Clockwise<\/strong>. <strong>Left Turn = Anti-Clockwise<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Learn the &#8220;Triplets&#8221;:<\/strong> SSC GD loves questions involving the Shortest Distance (Pythagoras Theorem). Memorize the common triplets: <strong>(3, 4, 5)<\/strong>, <strong>(6, 8, 10)<\/strong>, and <strong>(5, 12, 13)<\/strong>. If you see 3 and 4 as sides, the distance is automatically 5.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shadow Rule:<\/strong> Remember this simple logic: In the morning (Sunrise), shadows fall to the <strong>West<\/strong>. In the evening (Sunset), shadows fall to the <strong>East<\/strong>. If a shadow is to the &#8220;Left,&#8221; the person is facing North (in the morning).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Read the End First:<\/strong> Always check what the question is asking. Is it asking for the <em>total distance covered<\/em> or the <em>shortest distance<\/em> from the start? These are two different answers.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.practicemock.com%2Fs1pricing%2Findex.php%3Fc%3Dsscpro&amp;ref=15036\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1141\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/SSC-Packages.png\" alt=\"Budget-friendly online courses for SSC, Railways, and State exams, detailing 'SSC Pro' and 'SSC Prime' features.\" class=\"wp-image-183927\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>Join our exclusive Telegram group for expert guidance, personalized tips, and real-time solutions to boost your SSC exam prep.
