Answer 1

Darshan is 12 meters East from his initial point

Explanation:

Direction contains in the relative position of one point or person with respect to another without any distance information. Directions may be either relative to some indicated reference or absolute according to some previously agreed upon frame of reference.

There are four cardinal directions. They include:

North (N), South (S), East (E) and West (W)

East and West are located at right angles to North and South.

Pls refer to the pic attached below

According to the question,

AF = AB+ CD+ EF

     = 4 + 5 + 3

      = 12 meters

In the attached pic we can see that point F is also is also in the same direction as point A. Therefore, the answer is 12 meters East.
