Solution

The correct option is C
Southwest
दक्षिण पश्चिम
If the minute hand is pointing towards the west, there will be a difference of 45° in the minute hand and the hour hand at 4.30. And that difference would be in the anticlockwise direction. Hence, Southwest direction.

यदि मिनट की सुईं पश्चिम की ओर इशारा कर रही है, तो मिनट की सुईं में 45° का अंतर होगा तथा घंटे की सुईं 4.30 पर होगी।अंतर घड़ी की विपरीत दिशा में होगा।इसलिए, दक्षिण-पश्चिम दिशा।
