1. Determine the number of 45-degree sectors to turn

Number of 45∘45^\circ sectors = 135∘÷45∘=3135^\circ \div 45^\circ = 3 sectors.

2. Determine the final direction after turning

Starting facing East. Turning anti-clockwise by 3 sectors (45∘45^\circ each):
1 sector anti-clockwise from East is North-East.
2 sectors anti-clockwise from East is North.
3 sectors anti-clockwise from East is North-West.

3. Identify the landmark in the final direction

From landmark B, the North-West direction corresponds to moving left (West) and up (North) equally. Landmark A is 2 units West and 2 units North of B, which is exactly North-West.
