Which pair is correct for understanding India's area?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Area — square kilometre

Option A is correct because the area of a country is measured in square kilometres. Area describes the surface covered by a two-dimensional region, so its unit is obtained by multiplying a length by a breadth: kilometre × kilometre = square kilometre, written km². An hour measures time, a degree measures an angle or angular position such as latitude and longitude, and kilometres per hour measures speed. Those units cannot express the surface extent of India. Remembering the dimensional meaning of the unit prevents confusion between distance and area. Thus, the pair “area—square kilometre” is the only scientifically and geographically appropriate pair.
