Answer»

Right choice is (b) Gable roof

To explain: Sloping TRIANGLES are formed in the hip roof at the end faces while in the MANSARD roof, sloping ends are obtained. Mansard roof also slopes in FOUR directions just like hip roof but the difference is that in mansard roof, each slope has a break. At the end of the hip roof, the sloped triangular surface formed is known as the hipped end.
