For statement 2 following cases are possible:
A--(5)--C-------(20)-----------B
C--(5)--A-------(15)---------B
So this statement is not sufficient.
Answer: A.

Only way statement 1 works is above. Statement 1 is sufficient.
Statement 2 is a trap. If you do statement 1 first, you may be fooled into thinking, because A is to the left of point B that it is the same as above. However, it could also be:
|----|------------|
C A B
|-5--|
|---20-------|
