Face west and it will be directly behind you.
Because when you are at the South pole, every direction is north.
As long as you are not standing on either the North or South Poles, the east would be to your right.
Lines of longitude run north-south and measure east-west.
It'll be 90 degrees to your left.
north and south pole. at the north pole the only direction you can move is south, at the south pole the only direction you can move is north... however this falls apart as soon as you leave the pole (even one step) then you can turn right or left and move east or west. (though not far)
It is the northern most point on Earth. You cannot go west or east of it, so the only direction is south. At the South Pole, you can only go north. The Earth rotates based on the North Pole and South Pole. There is no east or west pole.
North south east and west
east is where the sun sorge, west is where the sun fall, north is the opposite of east and south is the opposite of west.
Venus rotates on its axis in a retrograde direction, moving from east to west or in a north to south direction when viewed from above its north pole.
Technically speaking, if you were to stand at the North Pole there would be only the direction considered south. Compasses work off of magnetic pole, we refer to this as the "North Pole." A compass always shows the direction of North, so imagine standing at the North Pole and trying to go east, it wouldn't work too well because as you go east the compass reading would change.
Going from one place on the earth's surface to another place means you must move in some direction. The most important directions are called cardinal directions. They are north, south, east, and west. The North Pole is the most northern point on the earth's surface. The South Pole is the most southern point. No matter where you are standing on the earth's surface, north is toward the North Pole and south is toward the South Pole.East is the direction that the earth turns and is the direction of the sunrise. West is the direction that is exactly opposite east. It is the direction of the sunset.If you know one direction, you can figure out all of the others. When you face north, south will be straight behind you. East is to your right and west is to your left.If you face south, north is behind you, east is on your left, and west is on your right.To describe directions that are not exactly north, south, east, or west, it is necessary to combine them. For example, the direction halfway between north and west is called northwest. The direction halfway between south and east is called southeast. These new directions are called intermediate directionsbecause they show directions in-between the four mainSo east is facing to the right side.
If you are facing north on the Earth east is directly to the right exept exactly on the north or south pole where there is no east but only north or south.
