Which symbol represents the Greek letter Rho?

• A. Ρ ρ
• B. Ρ Σ
• C. Ρ Ο
• D. Ρ Α

Answer: (A)

Rho is the Greek letter that stands for the “R” sound. Its uppercase form is Ρ, which looks just like the Latin capital P, and its lowercase form is ρ, a distinct Greek shape. Among the choices, the symbol that shows both forms of Rho—Ρ and ρ—correctly represents the letter. The other options pair Ρ with other Greek letters (Sigma, Omicron, Alpha), so they do not represent Rho.
