I see that below link lists lots of directives that can be used.  
[https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks\_directives.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_directives.html)

Howerver, i am not able to find the example/explanation of these directives.

Is there any documentation, that explains about these directives?

​There is no directly link to each but they should all be documented as part of the rest of the docs.​ i.e become\ __, sudo\__ , su\_\* ones are all in the ‘privilege escalation’ page.
