Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (A) AR: makes copies in rectangular, polar or path patterns; (C) CHA: bevels two straight-line edges

Explanation

AR invokes ARRAY for repeated patterned copies, and CHA invokes CHAMFER to bevel adjacent line segments, so A, C. Exploding compound objects uses EXPLODE rather than the stated BRK description. SXL is not the standard alias for breaking an object. Aliases can be customised; the source assumes the usual defaults.
