Answer #1

CH₂ CH 3 (axial) \H (equatorial) #equatorial [CH₂ CH3 s 46. Chich he ④ (chain form) uatorial) H (axial) CH2CH3 (Equatorial) k

In the A compound if you see carefully both the ethyl groups are at axial position, whereas in the B compound one ethyl is at axial and another at equatorial, so no matter whatever symmetry operation you do you cannot get the other compound, so they are Diastereomers.
