Why might u. s. involvement in the korean war be part of the policy of containment?

US involvement in the Korean War may be considered a containment policy because, on that occasion, military, economic, and diplomatic strategies were used to stop the spread of communism in Korea .

This policy was a response to a series of moves by the Soviet Union to expand communist influence not only in Korea but also in Eastern Europe, China, and Vietnam.

the correct answer is “opportunity cost”. opportunity cost is what a company misses out because it decided in one option over another one. in this case, the company decided to invest in building a factory so it gave up another possible benefit or profit in order to achieve success with the factory.  

trade-off is not the correct answer since it is a situation in which you accept losing something in return for benefits in other areas.

and finally, consequence is a general term used to accept what it comes when you make a decision. it can be a positive or negative consequence depending if the decision you took was the correct one.
