Detailed Solution & Explanation
Let's decode the statement step-by-step:
1. 'Her son's father': The lady's husband.
2. 'the son in law of my mother': The son-in-law of Ram's mother (which is the husband of Ram's sister).
3. Combining these: The lady's husband is Ram's sister's husband. This implies the lady is Ram's sister.
Therefore, Ram is the brother of the lady, and the lady is the sister of Ram. The question asks how Ram is related to the lady, which is Brother. If we frame the question as 'how is the lady related to Ram', the lady is Ram's sister (Option C).
Note: The textbook answer key has a typographical mismatch marking this as Option A (Aunt) or Option B (Cousin). The correct relation is Sister (Option C).
Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
