Nitin just needs to follow instructions in the given order:
1. Faces South
2. Walks straight 50m, now he still faces South
3. Turns right & walks 40m, now he faces West
4. Turns left & walks 80m, now he faces South
5. Walks 70m in opposite(North opposite to South) direction which means he is 10m(80m - 70m) away from the previous place
Now, to find out the difference in the distance between the starting & Ending point, we have 2 sides 40m & 60m(50+10).
As per the Pythagoras theorem,
R2 = X2 + Y2
R2 = (40*40) + (60*60) = 1600 + 3600 = 5200
R = 72.11 ~= 72m
