एका व्यक्तीचे मुख पश्चिमेकडे आहे, ती व्यक्ती घड्याळाच्या दिशेने 45° तून वळते, पुन्हा घड्याळाच्या दिशेने 180° तून वळते आणि नंतर घड्याळाच्या विरुद्ध दिशेने 270° तून वळते, तर आता तिचे मुख कोणत्या दिशेला आहे ? A man is facing towards West and turns through 45° clockwise, again 180° clockwise and then turns through 270° anticlockwise. In which direction is he facing now?
Facing West: 45° clockwise turns him to North-West, a further 180° clockwise to South-East, and 270° anticlockwise from South-East brings him to South-West. In one step: 45 + 180 - 270 = 45° anticlockwise from West, which is South-West.
दि. 20 मार्च 1995 रोजी सोमवार येतो. 3 नोव्हेंबर 1994 चा दिवस कोणता होता ? / Monday falls on 20th March, 1995. What was the day of 3rd November, 1994 ?
Count back from Monday, 20 March 1995. From 3 November 1994 to 20 March 1995 is 27 (rest of Nov) + 31 (Dec) + 31 (Jan) + 28 (Feb) + 20 (Mar) = 137 days = 19 weeks + 4 days. Four days before Monday is Thursday.
