Solution

The correct option is C AD

The line of sight is the line drawn from the eye of an observer to the point in object viewed by the observer.

From the question, we know that, the girl moved from the B to C and then to D.
Now, the girl is at the point D and looking at the point A.
Hence, AD will be the line of sight.
