How far is point 'R' from Point 'T'? Statement (I): Point 'R' is 5 metres to the north of point 'M'. Point 'U' is 4 metres to the east of point 'R'. Point 'T' is to the west of point 'R' such that points 'U' 'R' and 'T' form a straight line of  metres. Statement (II): Point 'Z' is metres to the south of point 'T'. Point 'U' is  metres to the east of point 'T'. Point 'M' is  metres to the east of point 'Z'. Point 'R' is  metres to the north of point 'M'. Point 'R' lies on the line formed by joining points 'T' and 'U'. Correct Answer Statement (I) alone is sufficient to answer the question while statement (II) is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement I - Point 'R' is 5 metres to the north of point 'M'. Point 'U' is 4 metres to the east of point 'R'. Point 'T' is to the west of point 'R' such that points 'U' 'R' and 'T' form a straight line of 6 metres.

From statement (II) - we can find the distance and direction of Z from point T but in the question only asking for the distance of R from point T so we no need to draw and mention the Z position from point T.

Hence, ‘option 3’ is the correct answer.
