Question

What is the shape of The Lāl Quilā?

• A. Hexagonal
• B. Octagonal
• C. Pentagonal
• D. Heptagonal

Hint:

Look for the words 'in shape' in the passage.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Idea:
We will read the shape directly from the passage and then match the word with the number of sides, checking every option.

Step 2: Find the shape word:
In the passage, look for the words 'in shape'. They are followed by the word octagonal.

Step 3: Turn the word into a count:
The prefix 'octa' means eight, so octagonal means eight sided.

Step 4: Compare the options:
Hexagonal means six sides, pentagonal five and heptagonal seven. Only octagonal means eight, so only Option 2 fits.

Step 5: Cross-check with the towers:
The passage also mentions semi-octagonal towers at the gates, which fits a fort built on an eight sided plan.

Final Answer:
The passage describes an eight sided fort, so the answer is Option 2. \[ \boxed{\text{Octagonal}} \]
