Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (C) Option C in the figure

Explanation

In set C the angular boundary segments pair up as internal joins, leaving four equal straight outer sides. Its three circular cutouts meet to form the central round hole. D has no circular cutouts; the cutout placements and boundary joins in A and B do not form the required square with one central hole. **C**.
