They are definitely not synonyms, that would mean they mean the same thing which they definitely do not. They are antonyms.

EXPLANATION:

They are antonyms their meanings are the opposite of each other. Outgoing means friendly and socially confident and on the other hand reclusive means avoiding company of other people or solitary.

The correct answer is D) They are antonymous. Their meaning is the opposite of each other.

The statement that best identifies the relationship between the terms “outgoing” and “reclusive”, and explains how it influence their meaning is option D) They are antonymous. Their meaning is the opposite of each other.

An antonym is a word that has the opposite meaning. In this case, both words are opposites. Outgoing means energetic, very active, likes to be with other people. The opposite meaning is reclusive. It means that a person likes to be alone, solitary, with no people around to be or to speak.
