Solution

Determine the right angles using the figure:

  1. A person is facing north and turns anti-clockwise to the west, indicating that he has turned to the left.
  2. Clockwise refers to turning in the same direction as the clock's hands, while anti-clockwise refers to turning in the opposite direction.
  3. The figure depicts a 90° angle formed by north and west,
  4. A 90° angle formed by west and south
  5. A 90° angle formed by south and east.

So, If a person starts facing north and turns anti-clockwise to the east, it will make 3 right angle.

Hence, facing north and turning anti-clockwise to the east will make 3 right angles.
