    Answer:D To be classified as a flat, both Fault and Bedding should have same dip amount and dip direction. In Option-D both fault and Bedding have same dip amount as well as the direction; so that should be a correct Option. In other options either dip amount or direction of the fault plane and bedding plane aren't equal so these will not be classified as a flat.
