The diagram for the given direction problem is as follows:

[ alt="Railways D3" src="//storage.googleapis.com/tb-img/production/19/04/Railways_D3.PNG" style="width: 471px; height: 373px;">

= (15)2 + (2)2

= 225 + 4

= 229

= 15 m (approximately)

Hence, he is 15 m (approximately) far from the starting point.
