Solution

A Local Area Network (LAN) is a computer network that is used within a small geographic area, such as a building, office, or campus. It connects computers and devices within the limited area to share resources like printers, files, and internet access.

The other options are:

• WAN (Wide Area Network): Covers a large geographical area, like a city, country, or even worldwide (e.g., the internet).
• MAN (Metropolitan Area Network): Covers a larger area than a LAN but is typically restricted to a city or town.
• None of the above: Incorrect because LAN is the right term for a network within a building.

Therefore, the correct answer is LAN.
