Solution

The correct option is D Cannot be determined
There are five persons P, Q, R, S and T of different heights.
T is shorter than S but taller than R.
S > T > R
Only two persons are shorter than S and second tallest among them is of 158 cm.
So, R < T < S < P or Q
P > Q > S > T > R or
Q > P > S > T > R
Either three of four persons are shorter than Q
