What are the 3 types of direction?

North, south, east, and west are the only true directions. The directions on the compass that are halfway between these cardinal points are called northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest. These in-between points are called intermediate directions. Globes and maps show only north-south and east-west lines.

How many types of directions are there?

North, east, south, and west are the four cardinal directions, often marked by the initials N, E, S, and W. East and west are at right angles to north and south. East is in the clockwise direction of rotation from north.

Which way is north south east and west?

Most maps show North at the top and South at the bottom. To the left is West and to the right is East.
