The needle on a compass points only towards magnetic north. Therefore, the other end of the needle points (obviously) towards the south. East and west can be calculated from the compass without the need for specific pointers. The compass forms a circle of 360 degrees, which means that any direction (not just east and west) can be calculated: east = 90 degrees, west = 270 degrees - counting clockwise from north = zero degrees. Therefore, the sides of a bar magnet or the sides of a compass needle, while not specifically being marked east or west, must show east and west by using the degrees shown above.
A small magnet that can turn freely is called a compass. Compasses align with the Earth's magnetic field and can be used to find directions such as north, south, east, and west.
Well, let's see. Starting at North and proceeding clockwise from there,you've got your-- north by east-- north-northeast-- northeast by north-- northeast-- northeast by east-- east-northeast-- east by north-- EAST-- east by south-- east-southeast-- southeast by east-- southeast-- southeast by south-- south-southeast-- south by east-- SOUTH-- south by west-- south-southwest-- southwest by south-- southwest-- southwest by west-- west-southwest-- west by south-- WEST-- west by north-- west-northwest-- northwest by west-- northwest-- northwest by north-- north-northwest, and-- north by west
North, South, East and West I'm preety sure :)
Of course not! A magnet's poles are named after the directions in which they face when suspended.
East-West
North, south, east and west are all referred to as cardinal directions.

The directions for Asia are east to west.
It runs from East to West/West to East
I uderstand the cardinal directions to be North, East, South and West

Primary directions: North, South, East and West.
The four cardinal directions are north, south, east, and west. Other directions include northeast, southeast, northwest, and southwest which are referred to as the intermediate directions.
North, South, East and West I'm preety sure :)
