Which settings were chosen in Borders and Shading to apply a shadow page border that is 1 1/2 pt wide and uses Green, Accent 6, Darker 50%?

• A. Page Border tab; Shadow border; 1 1/2 pt; Green, Accent 6, Darker 50%; OK.
• B. Page Border tab; Box border; 1 pt; Blue, Accent 5, Lighter 40%; Cancel.
• C. Page Border tab; Shadow; 3 pt; Red, Accent 1; OK.
• D. Border Art; None; 0; Black.

Answer: (A)

Focus on matching three details: the border style, its thickness, and its color.

To get a shadow page border, you pick the Shadow border option. This creates the angled, offset edge that gives a "shadow" effect, unlike a plain box line or a decorative border art. The thickness must be set to 1 1/2 pt, which is a mid-range width and exactly where the border will appear bold enough without overpowering the page. For color, choose Green, Accent 6, Darker 50%—a specific theme color with a darker variant that aligns with the description you’re aiming for.

The other choices don’t fit because they change one or more of these aspects: using a different border style (Box or Border Art), a different thickness (1 pt or 3 pt), or a different color (Blue, Accent 5, Lighter 40% or Red, Accent 1), or have no border at all. Only the combination of Shadow, 1 1/2 pt, and Green, Accent 6, Darker 50% yields the requested look.
