Solution

Correct Answer: (a) Spiral Model

Explanation

Spiral Model is risk-driven - each loop has Risk Analysis quadrant (Boehm). Potential risks (technical, cost, schedule) best detected early via prototype and risk assessment.

  • Waterfall detects risk late (testing)
  • Incremental delivers but less risk focus
  • Prototyping addresses UI risk only

Answer: (a) Spiral Model
