which of the statements are true...

[Supriya Nimakuri]

A. catch(X x) can catch subclasses of X.
B. Any statement that can throw an Exception must be enclosed in a try block.

I guess Statement B is true..if not why..

No, RuntimeException, Error, and their subclasses are unchecked exceptions. Code that may throw them is not required to be in a try block nor is the exception required to be listed in the throws clause of the method containing the code.

Second part is same as your previous thread throw where i gave its explanation.

B. No, because the method inside which the statement exists can propagate the exception up via method's throws clause without enclosing the statement in try-catch block.
