The API provide the answer to that kind of question, but b is the correct answer.
Please use the API as much as you can...

From the API


public void drawRect(int x, int y, int width, int height)
Draws the outline of the specified rectangle.


There must something wrong with your mock test I guess... b is the correct answer.

The answer is b) and d)
drawPoligon will also draw rectangle if you'll give an array of ccordanates of rectangle as an argument.
I answered this question I got right.

Does drawPolygon() still count as a single call though? You have to do a lot of prep-work first, by creating an array, and populating with data, THEN calling drawPolygon() and passing the data. With drawRect() you don't need any other prepatory work, you can make a single call with the data you need in that call.
Or am I splitting hairs here? (being too picky??)
