    The depth to cut the bed at b is more and less at a and intermediate at c but also The direction of b is north of a so bed must dip northward but can't be so sure before stereoplot we just can guess the dip may be in North West and northeast also

    The depth of bed is decreasing towards North (depth of bed at point b is greater than the depth of point a). So, the dip direction of the bed should be towards North (in case of single option correct). If the question is multiple choice correct then the answer would be North, Northeast and Northwest.
