How large is the zone of fire for each hunter seated back to back in a boat?

  1. 90 degrees

  2. 120 degrees

  3. 180 degrees

  4. 360 degrees

The correct answer is: 180 degrees

The zone of fire for each hunter in a boat refers to the area in which they are able to safely aim and shoot their weapons. Option A, B, and D are all incorrect because they do not provide a large enough zone of fire. A 90-degree angle or a 120-degree angle would limit each hunter's ability to shoot on either side of the boat, potentially causing them to miss a target or even injure their fellow hunter. Option D, 360 degrees, would mean that the hunters could potentially shoot in any direction, which is unsafe and could result in accidents. Option C, 180 degrees, is the correct answer as it allows each hunter to have a 180-degree range of fire, providing enough coverage for them to aim and shoot at targets safely while seated back to back in a boat.
