The Right Angle

Determine the answer to each problem below. Then write the word in the 10 by 10 matrix using the following rules:

  1. Each word makes one right-angle turn somewhere along its length. But you must determine where each word makes this turn and in which direction.
  2. As a guide, the starting direction (i.e., the direction of the word before its right angle turn) of each answer is indicated by the letter given after the clue number.
  3. Words can go North, South, East, or West to start with. For example, 1S begins on square 1 and heads South.
  4. Each letter in the correctly completed grid appears in only one word.
