A

Solution :

Correct Answer: Option B (A)


Let's find the designated letters from the given word step-by-step.


The given word is EXACTITUDE.


Now, let's identify the positions of the letters from the left end:

1st letter = E
2nd letter = X
3rd letter = A
4th letter = C
5th letter = T
6th letter = I
7th letter = T
8th letter = U
9th letter = D
10th letter = E


We need to extract the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 7th letters:

• 3rd letter = A
• 4th letter = C
• 5th letter = T
• 7th letter = T


The extracted letters are A, C, T, T.


Now, we check if any meaningful four-letter English word can be formed using all four of these letters: A, C, T, T.

Using these four letters, we can form the English word TACT.


Since exactly one meaningful word ("TACT") is formed, we determine the second letter of this word:

The letters of "TACT" in order are T - A - C - T.

The second letter is A.


Therefore, the second letter of the word formed is A.
