Can someone explain where that answer comes from? I can't invision how, when passed from the top, front, or end, that shape would ever fit through that hole

It you take a look at the top of the structure, you'll see that both planks form an X across the center of the hexagon and NOT the entire structure making answer choice C possible. Typed this during lecture so left me know if you need any clarifications.

I'm guessing that for A, the whole thing needs to be enlarged. For D, the width needs to be longer.

Something like this.

2nd!, great explanation.

Three words. Proportions Proportions. Proportions. You got to be careful.
 
Well it is the correct shape, just overall a size smaller. Is it universally true that we always have to have the right size... Have you guys never came upon a problem where the hole is perfect shape but a bit small so isn't the right answer? I can't recall if I have, I honestly thought that sometimes the keyholes can be a bit smaller, but as long as its the right shape and not much smaller, it's the answer.
