- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Freeform tools are used to create irregular shapes, not regular shapes. Regular shapes can be easily created using other tools such as the rectangle or ellipse tool. Freeform tools allow users to draw shapes freely without any specific constraints or predefined shapes. Therefore, the statement that freeform tools are used to select regular shapes is false.

All of the following are setting of the magic wand tool except:
- A.
  
  Tolerance
- B.
  
  Anti-alias
- C.
  
  Edge contrast
- D.
  
  Contiguous
Correct Answer
C. Edge contrast

Explanation
The magic wand tool is used in image editing software to select areas of similar color or tone. The tolerance setting determines how similar the colors need to be in order to be selected. The anti-alias setting smooths the edges of the selection. The contiguous setting determines whether the selection is limited to adjacent pixels or can extend to non-adjacent pixels. However, the edge contrast setting is not a setting of the magic wand tool.
