Answer 1

Answer:

A person walked 12 m North, then he turned right and walked 10 m.

Then he turned right towards South and walked 12 m.

So, he walked making U turn. Thus, he covered the distance of 12 m and hence, he is is the same line  and 10 m far where he started from. 

Then he turned left towards East and Walked 5 m.

Thus, he is towards East from the original position and 15 m far from the starting point.

Hence, option B is correct.
