Answer:

all of the options are factually correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The text is missen, however the question seems to examine "What Is a Supermoon? A Full Moon That Is Closest to Earth | Space"

I will however examine each options as true or false.

A supermoon occurs when a full moon happens on the same night the moon

reaches perigee. True.

A perigee of the moon is a point, in its trajectory in space, where it is the most closest to the Earth.

Apogee is its farthest point from Earth in its orbit. This fact too is true.

Though it not as obvious to the casual observer but Supermoons are only about 7 percent bigger and 15 percent brighter than the average full moon. This true.

The slight change in size happens because the moon follows an eccentric / elliptica orbit around Earth. True.

The facts above are true facts and I conclude that all of the options are factually correct.
