Correct answer: E — indistinct

• Step 1: 'exact' means correct in every detail.
• Step 2: The opposite idea is not clear or definite. 'indistinct' means not clear or definite, so it is the antonym.
• Why the other options are wrong:
• A (precise): 'precise' means correct in every detail, the SAME as 'exact', not the opposite.
• B (delicate): 'delicate' means easily broken or damaged, which is not the opposite of 'exact'.
• C (lazy): 'lazy' means not working or active, which is not the opposite of 'exact'.
• D (unworldly): 'unworldly' means lacking experience, wisdom or judgement, which is not the opposite of 'exact'.

Prefixes can build opposites ('un-', 'dis-', 'in-'), but many antonyms are completely different words, so know both.
