What type of computer language is used to design web pages?

  1. HTML

  2. Java

  3. SQL

  4. C++

The correct answer is: HTML

HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is primarily used for creating web pages and the structure of web content. It allows for the placement of texts, images, and other multimedia elements within a page. Option B, Java, is a general-purpose, object-oriented programming language that is used for developing desktop and mobile applications. It is not primarily used for designing web pages. Option C, SQL (Structured Query Language), is used for managing and querying databases, but is not used for designing web pages. Option D, C++, is a general-purpose programming language often used for developing applications, but not specifically for designing web pages. Therefore, the correct answer is A, HTML, because it is specifically designed for creating web pages.
