Bad question. It asks from what direction do we see the sun set. As the sun sets in the west, we are east of it.

jesusofsuburbia, I totally agree with Jesus of suburbia, the question should properly be phrased In which direction not from which direction , owd Beechy,

Bad question. The sun sets IN the west, so we see the sunset FROM the east.

jesusofsuburbia, Correct, I knew it was an intentional trick question, but refused to play their game, so answered from the East, as is correct! ;)

jesusofsuburbia, I understood the question perfectly. I do not know what version of Earth you are living in if you assume the sun sets in the east.

I remember my PE teacher said a rhyme to help students remember which direction the Sun sets and rises Sets in the West, rises in the East ( only the first part rhymes by the way )

jesusofsuburbia, my question just asked “where does the sun set in?” Looks like your comment made them change their wording. Well done.

Bad phrasing. You see the sun set from the east because it sets in the west

I agree that the way the question is phrased is misleading

Poorly worded question

From which direction = where is the viewer looking from, not to.
