Let me set up a coordinate system to visualize the positions of all points.
Let D be at the origin for reference.
Since B is to the North of D, B is directly above D.
Since A is to the South of D, A is directly below D.
Since C is to the East of B, C is to the right of B.
This gives us the relative positions:
- D at position (0, 0)
- B at position (0, h) where h > 0
- A at position (0, -k) where k > 0
- C at position (m, h) where m > 0
To find the direction of A from C, we need to determine how to get from C to A.
From C at (m, h) to A at (0, -k):
- Horizontal displacement: from m to 0 (move West)
- Vertical displacement: from h to -k (move South)
Since we need to move both West and South to go from C to A, the direction is South-West.
Therefore, A is to the South-West of C.
The answer is Option 2: South-West.
