The Human Development Index (HDI) measures progress in:

Economic growth only
Military power only
Standard of living, health, and education
Infrastructure development only

The correct answer is C) Standard of living, health, and education.

The Human Development Index (HDI) is a composite statistic of life expectancy, education, and per capita income indicators, which are used to rank countries into four tiers of human development. A country scores higher on the HDI if it has a high life expectancy, high educational attainment, and a high standard of living.

The HDI was developed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in 1990. The HDI is used to measure a country’s level of development and to track progress over time. The HDI is not a perfect measure of human development, but it is a useful tool for comparing countries and tracking progress.

Option A is incorrect because the HDI measures more than just economic growth. The HDI also measures health and education.

Option B is incorrect because the HDI does not measure military power.

Option D is incorrect because the HDI does not measure infrastructure development.
