The correct options are
A trabeate
C corbelled
During the 7th and 10th centuries, we see that the architects added more rooms, doors and windows to buildings. A new architectural style called trabeate developed, where roofs, doors and windows were made by placing a horizontal beam across two vertical columns. This style was used in the construction of mosques, temples, tombs and buildings.
