What type of questions involve statements that imply questions?

Closed-ended questions
Indirect questions
Open-ended questions
Circular questions

The correct answer is: Indirect questions

Indirect questions involve statements that imply questions. These questions do not directly ask for information but suggest it through a statement. For example, instead of asking, "What time is it?" an indirect question may be, "I wonder what time it is." This type of questioning can be used to gather information in a less direct or confrontational manner. Closed-ended questions (option A) require straightforward, specific answers and do not involve implied questions. Open-ended questions (option C) encourage the individual to provide more detailed and expansive responses. Circular questions (option D) are questions that lead back to the original question, often creating confusion or maintaining a closed loop of discussion. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
