Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C)

The correct options are
B In the evening a rainbow can be seen in the east.
C In the morning a rainbow can be seen in the west.

Rainbow appears in the direction opposite to the sun.

In the morning the Sun is in the east. So, to see a rainbow you must be facing towards west.

In the evening, the Sun is in the western sky. So, rainbow appears in the east during evening.
