Rules of the Road Question 638 diagram
A A
B B
C C
D D
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A. In the illustration D087RR, the breadth as defined in the Rules is represented by the line labeled "A". The breadth refers to the width of the vessel, and this is the appropriate dimension indicated in the diagram. The other options (B, C, and D) represent different dimensions or aspects of the vessel, but they do not specifically depict the breadth as required by the question. Therefore, option A is the correct answer based on the information provided in the illustration.
