question 7 of 10
a historical fact is an idea that:

a. has been proven to be true.

b. reflects one persons beliefs.

c. is based on primary sources.

d. is based on secondary sources.

Explanation:

A historical fact is an event or idea that has evidence supporting its truth, meaning it has been proven true. Option B is incorrect as personal beliefs are opinions, not facts. Options C and D are about sources (primary/secondary) which are used to prove facts, but the fact itself is the proven - true idea, not defined by the source type.

Answer:

A. has been proven to be true.
