Explanation:
The type of context clues used the sentence that can help us determine the meaning of "guile" is an antonym clue, as further explained below.
<h3>What are context clues?</h3>
We can define context clues as pieces of information provided by authors in their text that help us figure out the meaning of new and unfamiliar words. Examples of context clues are:
In the sentence "Andrea's opponent was honest and straightforward, but Andrea used her guile to win the contest," we can determine the meaning of "guile" by using an antonym context clue.
Antonyms are words that have opposite meanings and, in the sentence, "guile" has the opposite meaning of "honest" and "straightforward." We know that because the author uses the word "but" when comparing Andrea to her opponent.
With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided is correct.
The missing sentence is the following:
Andrea's opponent was honest and straightforward, but Andrea used her guile to win the contest.
