Answer: (A)

This question tests which ocean borders the United States’ western coastline. The West Coast faces the Pacific Ocean, which lies to the west of North America and forms the coastline from Washington down to California. The Atlantic Ocean borders the eastern side of the country, while the Indian Ocean and the Arctic Ocean do not form the western coastline of the U.S. (the Arctic is far to the north, and the Indian Ocean lies between Africa, Asia, and Australia).
