How far beyond the perimeter of the platform should the Merry-Go-Round Use Zone extend?

6 feet
5 feet
10 feet
8 feet

The correct answer is: 6 feet

Explanation The correct answer is A, 6 feet. This is because the use zone of a Merry-Go-Round should extend at least 6 feet beyond the edge of the platform to ensure the safety of the users. Option B and D are incorrect because they do not provide enough distance for the use zone to extend and may result in potential accidents or injuries. Option C is also incorrect as it exceeds the recommended distance of 6 feet and may cause the use zone to be too large, potentially taking away space from other playground equipment. Therefore, it is important to follow the recommended distance of 6 feet for the Merry-Go-Round's use zone.
