(____) : SURPASSED :: INDISPUTABLE : CHALLENGED

To solve this analogy, we need to find a word that has a similar relationship to "SURPASSED" as "INDISPUTABLE" has to "CHALLENGED."

1. Understand the relationship between "INDISPUTABLE" and "CHALLENGED":

   • "INDISPUTABLE" means something that cannot be challenged or questioned.
   • Therefore, the relationship is that "INDISPUTABLE" is the opposite of "CHALLENGED."

2. Apply the same relationship to "SURPASSED":

   • "SURPASSED" means to be exceeded or outdone.
   • We need to find a word that means something that cannot be surpassed or outdone.

3. Evaluate the options: A. grandiose - impressive or magnificent in appearance or style, but not necessarily related to being unsurpassed. B. peerless - without equal; unrivaled, which means it cannot be surpassed. C. opaque - not transparent, unrelated to being surpassed. D. lavish - rich, elaborate, or luxurious, but not necessarily related to being unsurpassed. E. transparent - allowing light to pass through, unrelated to being surpassed.

The correct answer is: B. peerless
