Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (A) P–III, Q–I, R–II, S–IV

Explanation

A feeler gauge measures clearance or gaps(P–III); a fillet gauge checks radius(Q–I). A snap gauge checks external diameter against limits(R–II), while a cylindrical plug gauge checks internal hole size(S–IV). The complete mapping is **A**.
