🔍 Key Concepts

• Typical design and range of motion of fire hydrant outlets on vessels • How ‘anywhere from horizontal to…’ describes a range of allowable positions • Whether each option (A, B, C) could reasonably be included in that full range of motion

💭 Think About

• If an outlet can move from horizontal toward one direction, what does that imply about the end points of that motion? • Do any of the given angle choices exclude positions that the question clearly allows? • Which option(s) would be true if the outlet could be positioned at any angle between horizontal and the furthest allowed direction?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm whether the phrase “anywhere from horizontal to…” suggests a single specific final direction or multiple directions • Check if an outlet that can point in the furthest-allowed direction could also be set at any intermediate angle (like 45°) • Verify which answer choice (if any) would be automatically true if the outlet can cover the entire stated range of motion
