To determine the direction Arun starts walking from the school, we can follow these steps:
Arun walks 2 km straight from his school: This means he is moving in a certain direction from the school.
He turns right and walks 1 km: Turning right implies a clockwise rotation of 90 degrees from the current direction. So, when Arun turns right, he changes his direction.
He turns right again and walks 1 km, reaching his house: Once again, Arun makes another clockwise rotation of 90 degrees from his current direction.
To find the final direction, we need to consider the initial direction Arun started walking from the school and the two consecutive right turns he made.
If we assume Arun started walking towards the north from the school (upwards direction on a map), we can follow the steps:
Arun walks 2 km straight from the school, still heading north.
He turns right, which would now make him face east.
He turns right again, making him face south.
Therefore, we see that if the house is southeast from the school, and Arun started walking from the school while facing north, he would need to walk north, take the first right turn to head east, and then take the second right turn to face south.
