How do you add a button to a frame using BorderLayout?

  1. Using add() with no second argument

  2. Specifying the region in the add() method

  3. Using setLayout() only

  4. You cannot add buttons using BorderLayout

The correct answer is: Specifying the region in the add() method

To add a button to a frame using BorderLayout, you must specify the region in the add() method. Option A is incorrect because the add() method requires a second argument to specify the position in the BorderLayout. Option C is also incorrect because although setLayout() is necessary to use BorderLayout, it is not enough on its own to add a button. Option D is incorrect as buttons can be added using BorderLayout by specifying the region in the add() method.
