Laxman went 15 kms from my house, then turned left and walked 20 kms. He then turned east and walked 25 kms and finally turning left covered 20kms. How far was he from his house?

A few problems here: we don't know where Laxman's house is (since the question says he starts from "my" house), and we don't know which direction he moves in first (north, south, east, west). Cannot solve.

This is an incomplete question...since, we don't know the correct directions of the house... Also, did it ask for the distance or the shortest distance...

As of now, it cannot be solved!!
