Solution

The correct option is A
South - West

The man firstly faces the direction OA. On moving 45 degrees clockwise [Please check carefully always if clockwise or anticlockwise], he faces the direction OB. Now again he moved 180 degrees clockwise, now he will be facing OC. From here he moved 270 degrees anticlockwise. Finally, he is facing OD, which is South-West.
