Solution

The correct option is A North
The four cardinal directions are North (N), East (E), South (S), West (W), at 90° angles on the compass rose. The four intercardinal (or ordinal) directions are formed by bisecting the angle of the cardinal winds: Northeast (NE), Southeast (SE), Southwest (SW) and Northwest (NW).
