Correct answer: B

Solution:

  1. Start facing East.

  2. Take clockwise as positive and anticlockwise as negative.

  3. Compute the net rotation: +100° + (−145°) = −45°.

  4. A net −45° means 45° anticlockwise from East.

  5. 45° anticlockwise from East lies halfway between East and North, which is North-East.

Final direction: North-East
