Question 1MediumLevel 5
What is common between India's (15200) km land boundary and (7516.6) km coastline?
Correct answer: B
India’s land boundary and coastline are both measured in kilometres, so both are figures of length or distance. Area is measured in square kilometres, making option A incorrect. Exam tip: use km for length and sq km for area.
In India's size, 15200 kilometres belongs to which category of figure?
Correct answer: A
India’s total land boundary is approximately 15,200 km, so option A is correct. Its coastline is about 7,516.6 km, so it should not be confused with 15,200 km. Exam tip: memorise land boundary, coastline, and north-south/east-west extent as separate figures.
