Answer: C
We need to determine whether x is even.
Statement I: x2y2 is even.
This means at least one of x2 or y2 is even. Hence, at least one of x or y is even.
But this does not definitely tell us whether x is even. For example, x could be odd and y could be even.
So, Statement I alone is not sufficient.
Statement II: 1+x2+y2 is odd.
For 1+x2+y2 to be odd, x2+y2 must be even.
This means x2 and y2 have the same parity. Therefore, x and y have the same parity: either both are even or both are odd.
So, Statement II alone is not sufficient.
Using both statements together:
From Statement I, at least one of x or y is even.
From Statement II, x and y have the same parity.
Therefore, both x and y must be even.
Hence, x is definitely even.
So, the question can be answered using both statements together, but not using either statement alone.
