Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

INDIGNANT

Options:

Annoyed

Upset

Peeved

Correct Answer:

Pleased

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 2. pleased.

"Indignant" describes a feeling of anger or annoyance aroused by perceived unfair treatment or disrespect. It implies a strong sense of righteous anger or resentment.

The antonym "Pleased" is the opposite of indignant. It describes a feeling of satisfaction, contentment, or happiness with a situation or outcome.

Therefore, in the context of antonyms, "Pleased" is the most appropriate choice as it represents the opposite of "Indignant," indicating a positive feeling of satisfaction or contentment rather than anger or resentment.
