In my last comment, the order of the paragraphs has gone wrong due to technical reasons. So I am reposting it in the correct order.
So, when we start with P in a circle or hexagon, the exact position is not important. You can start by placing P at any point and then relative to it to solve the problem. And it doesn't affect the result.
But in a square table, when people sit in corners as well as in the middle of any side of the table, the points have to be placed carefully.
But even there the starting point can be in East, West, North or South without loss of correctness if nothing is explicitly mentioned.
Whether it will be a corner point or in the middle of a side is important.
