Probably the question should be height at B is 12m relative to Point B. 

As it is mentioned that there is no friction. All the potentyenwrgy will be converted to kinetic energy.

So, using the conservation of energy:

mgh = 1/2 mv2

Given : h = 12m

Taking g = 9.8m/s2

m * 9.8m/s2 * 12m = 1/2 * m * v2

Solving the equation 

v = (9.8*12*2)1/2 = 15.336 m/s
