Four Cardinal Direction - North-East, North-West, South-East, South-West
- At the time of sunrise if a man stands facing the east, his shadow will be towards the west.
- At the time of sunset the shadow of an object is always in the east.
- If a man stands facing the North, at the time of sunrise his shadow will be towards his left and at the time of sunset it will be towards his right.
- At 12:00 noon, the rays of the sun are vertically downward hence there will be no shadow.
