📊 Answers
Let's see how you did!
Question 1: B — A legal doctrine allowing limited use of copyrighted material without permission
Fair Use (in the US) allows limited use of copyrighted material for purposes like criticism, commentary, news reporting, teaching, and research. Factors considered include: the purpose of use, nature of the work, amount used, and effect on the market value.
Question 2: C — A mathematical formula or fact
Copyright protects original expression, not facts, ideas, or discoveries. Mathematical formulas, data, and facts are not copyrightable — though the way they're presented or explained might be.
Question 3: B — Creators to grant specific usage permissions to the public while retaining copyright
Creative Commons licenses let creators specify how others can use their work (e.g., attribution required, no commercial use, share-alike) while maintaining their copyright ownership.
