RELEVANT

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Inapplicable.

  • Inapplicable: Means not relevant or not suitable for the particular situation, which directly contrasts with the meaning of "relevant."

  • So, "inapplicable" is the correct antonym as it means not relevant or not appropriate in a given context.
  • The other option means:
    • Ineligible: Means not qualified or suitable for a particular purpose or position, but not directly opposite to "relevant."

    • Inhabitable: Means suitable for living in, which is unrelated to the concept of relevance.

    • Inevitable: Means certain to happen, which is unrelated to the concept of relevance.
