Solution

The correct option is C
Arjun is wrong and Shubh is right

Perimeter is the continuous line forming the boundary of a closed geometrical figure. Hence, Arjun was discussing about perimeter and not area. Area is the measurement of space enclosed by a closed geometrical figure. Therefore, Shubh's opinion is correct.
