5   it's the 10th August in 2012
which of them are correct?

Answer

Unless it's  very formal, just say It's the tenth of August. If it's a very formal occasion or you have to give a speech, you would say:  Today, the tenth of August, two thousand and twelve/ twenty twelve..........................

Answer

Go with 1. We do not say "the August". And saying a date in this way requires "of" and "the tenth", such as "the x of y".

Answer

Use "the tenth of August". If you use this day-month order but omit "of", you mean a period of ten years has passed.
