What is the minimum radius of curvature for the transition from sliding portion to exit region for toddlers?

  1. 18 inches

  2. 16 inches

  3. 20 inches

  4. 22 inches

The correct answer is: 18 inches

The minimum radius of curvature for the transition from sliding portion to exit region for toddlers is 18 inches. This means that the curve connecting the bottom of the slide to the platform where the child exits should have a minimum radius of 18 inches. Options B, C, and D have a larger radius, which would not meet the minimum requirement. A smaller radius could cause safety hazards and discomfort for toddlers. Therefore, 18 inches is the best option for a smooth and safe slide experience for toddlers.
