    Ans: Plunge amount of Lineation = 25 degrees Direction of Lineation = N (30+180) = N210 ; Because the Lineation is pitching from the south as given in the question. The question has some typos but still by looking at the given information I have tried to explain it. Feel free to ask if you have any doubt.
