Verified Answer :

If we have drawn a box plot to represent number of matches won by 14 participants in a tennis tournament, and got that the box plot was symmetric . It means

1 . There are equal number of values that is points obtained by 14 participants , on both side of a line drawn from the middle of the curve , there are equal number of points.

Symmetric means, → Median = Mean

→The point graph representing number of points obtained by 14 players is divided into two congruent parts or curves have equal areas.

So, we can conclude that

Option (A):There are no participants who won an exceptionally large or small number of matches compared to other participants.
