The given question consists of a set of statements. Find out whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question and mark the option:

Point X is in which direction with respect to Y?
I. Point Z is at equal distance from both point X and point Y.
II. Walking 5 km to the East of point X and taking two consecutive right turns after walking 5 km before each turn leads to point Y.

• A. If the data in Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
• B. If the data in Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
• C. If the data either in Statement I alone or Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
• D. If the data in both the Statements I and II together is not sufficient to answer the question.
• E. If the data in both the Statements I and II are together necessary to answer the question.

Answer 1

The correct option is B If the data in Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Statement I is clearly insufficient as no direction is mentioned in it.
From Statement II,

Hence, X is to the North of Y.
So, Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
