A person from point F drives towards south for 3km to reach point B, where he takes a left turn and drives for 12km to reach point H. Then he takes a right turn and drives for 8km to reach point R from where he turns to his right again and drives for 6km. He then drives for 5km after taking a right turn at point J and reaches point N. At this point he takes a left turn and drives for 8km to reach point V, where he takes a right turn and drives for 2km to reach point K. He finally stops at point Y, which is 3km to the west of point K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
