(A) Let us represent the positions on a coordinate plane where North is the positive $y$-axis and East is the positive $x$-axis.$1$. Let Atul be at the origin $(0, 0)$.$2$. Kunal is $40 \, 	ext{m}$ to the right (East) of Atul,so Kunal is at $(40, 0)$.$3$. Dinesh is $60 \, 	ext{m}$ to the south of Kunal,so Dinesh is at $(40, -60)$.$4$. Nitin is $25 \, 	ext{m}$ to the west of Atul,so Nitin is at $(-25, 0)$.$5$. Prashant is $90 \, 	ext{m}$ to the north of Dinesh,so Prashant is at $(40, -60 + 90) = (40, 30)$.Now,the person to the left of Kunal is Atul (at $(0, 0)$).We need to find who is to the north-east of Atul $(0, 0)$.Prashant is at $(40, 30)$,which is in the first quadrant relative to Atul,meaning he is to the north-east of Atul.Therefore,the correct answer is Prashant,but since Prashant is not in the options,let us re-evaluate the question. Re-reading: 'Who is to the north-east of the person who is to the left of Kunal?' The person to the left of Kunal is Atul. Prashant is at $(40, 30)$ relative to Atul $(0, 0)$. Since Prashant is not an option,let's check if the question implies a different person. Actually,looking at the options provided,there might be a typo in the question or options. However,based on the standard logic of this problem,Prashant is the correct answer. Given the constraints,if we must choose from the list,we identify the person closest to the north-east direction.
