To solve this problem, we need to compare the two maps in each pair (labeled a and b) and determine which one correctly matches the description or follows a logical rule. Since no explicit question is given, but the format suggests matching or identifying correct transformations, let’s analyze each pair logically.

We’ll look for consistency in:
- Location of buildings (Post Office, Bank, Hotel, Book-store)
- Direction of arrows (traffic flow)
- Presence of traffic lights or parks

---

Pair 1: Post Office



Map 1a:
- Post Office is in bottom-right block.
- Arrows: Up on vertical road, Right on horizontal road → so traffic goes up then right? But arrow directions may indicate allowed movement from that intersection.

Actually, looking at both maps:

In 1a:
- Vertical road has upward arrow below the intersection.
- Horizontal road has rightward arrow to the right of the intersection.
→ So if you’re coming from south, you go up; if you’re coming from west, you go right.

In 1b:
- Post Office moved to top-left block.
- Arrows: Left on horizontal road (top), Up on vertical road (middle).
→ This seems like a different configuration.

But notice: In both maps, the Post Office is placed such that it’s adjacent to the intersection where arrows point toward it or away? Not clear.

Wait — perhaps the task is to find which map shows the building located *in the direction the arrows are pointing*? Or maybe which map correctly places the building based on arrow directions?

Alternatively, maybe the arrows show how to get TO the building?

Let’s try another approach.

Look at Pair 2: Park and Bank

2a:
- Park is top-left green area.
- Bank is bottom-left orange box.
- Arrows: Left on horizontal road (below park), Up on vertical road (right of bank).

2b:
- Park still top-left.
- Bank moved to bottom-right.
- Arrows: Right on horizontal road (bottom), Up on vertical road (middle).

Notice: In 2a, the Bank is on the left side, and there’s a left-pointing arrow on the road above it — doesn’t match.

In 2b, Bank is on bottom-right, and there’s a right-pointing arrow on the bottom road — that could mean traffic flows right toward the Bank? Or away?

This is ambiguous.

Perhaps the key is: The building should be located in the quadrant that the arrows are directing traffic INTO.

Let’s test that.

Try Rule: “Arrows point toward the building”



#### Pair 1:

1a:
- Arrows: Up (from south) and Right (from west) → they meet at center, pointing northeast.
- Post Office is in southeast quadrant → not where arrows point.

1b:
- Arrows: Left (from east) and Up (from south) → point northwest.
- Post Office is in northwest quadrant → YES! Matches.

So 1b might be correct for Pair 1.

#### Pair 2:

2a:
- Arrows: Left (from east) and Up (from south) → point northwest.
- Bank is in southwest → no.
- Park is in northwest → yes, but Park is large area, not small box.

Wait — in 2a, Bank is bottom-left (southwest), arrows point to northwest → mismatch.

2b:
- Arrows: Right (from west
