Solution

The correct option is D
Shadow formed similar to your shape

Shadows only show the shape or outline of the object and not the details. Shape of the shadow changes with the change in the shape of opaque body. As light travels in the straight line, the shadow will be formed exactly like the shape of the object because light does not bend in the path to change the shape of the opaque body.
