Question
Rita told Mani, “The girl I met yesterday at the beach was the youngest daughter of the brother-in-law of my friend’s mother.” How is the girl related to Rita’s friend?
Options:
A .  Cousin
B .  Daughter
C .  Niece
D .  Friend
E .  Aunt
Answer: Option A

 -  Daughter of brother-in-law - Niece; Mother’s niece - Cousin. So, the girl is the cousin of Rita’s friend.

To solve this problem, we can use the concept of family relationships and the given information to determine the relationship between the girl and Rita's friend.

The given information can be represented in a family tree diagram as follows:

              Rita's friend's mother

                           |

                       Brother-in-law

                           |

                        Youngest

                        daughter

                           |

                         Rita's

                         friend

                           |

                         Girl

From the diagram, we can see that the girl is the youngest daughter of the brother-in-law of Rita's friend's mother. Therefore, the girl's father (i.e., the brother-in-law) is related to Rita's friend's mother, and the girl is related to Rita's friend through her father. Specifically, the girl is Rita's friend's cousin, since they share a common set of grandparents.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A, cousin.

To summarize, we can use the concept of family relationships and the given information to determine the relationship between the girl and Rita's friend. The girl is Rita's friend's cousin, since they share a common set of grandparents.
