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

Explanation
A page height that is larger than the page width is characteristic of portrait orientation. This means that the page is taller than it is wide, resembling the shape of a portrait painting or photograph. In contrast, landscape orientation is when the page width is larger than the page height, resembling the shape of a landscape photograph. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct as it accurately describes the characteristic of portrait orientation.
