In understanding India's size, the figure 2,933 km is related to what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: East-west extent

The governing concept is the measurement of India's horizontal and vertical geographical extent. The figure 2,933 km represents India's approximate east-west extent, measured between its western and eastern limits. Therefore, option C is correct. This figure should not be confused with the approximate north-south extent of 3,214 km, which measures the distance between the northern and southern limits. A land boundary measures the international boundary shared with neighbouring countries, not the country's east-west span. The mainland coastline is a separate coastal measurement and is much shorter than the total east-west dimension. Option D is therefore wrong because it refers to the north-south, not east-west, direction.
