Kapil starts from point A and drives 9 km towards west.
He then takes a right turn, drives 1 km, turns right and drives 5 km.
He then takes a left turn and drives 3 km.
He then takes a left turn and drive 5 km.
He then takes a right turn and drives 8 km.
He takes a final right turn, drives 9 km and stops at point P.
