If a question asks India's east-west extent, which answer is most appropriate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2933 km

East-west extent means the distance measured from the easternmost part of India to the westernmost part, roughly along a line of longitude. It is different from north-south extent, which measures the distance from the northernmost to the southernmost part. India’s east-west extent is about 2,933 kilometres, while its north-south extent is about 3,214 kilometres. These figures describe the country’s broad shape and are useful when studying its location and size.

The correct choice is A, 2,933 km. Option B gives the commonly stated north-south extent, so it does not answer an east-west question. Option C is the approximate length of India’s land boundary, and option D refers to the coastline length. Reading the direction asked in the question first prevents confusion between these different geographical measurements.
