What is the name of the first ten amendments?

  1. The Federalist Papers

  2. The Bill of Rights

  3. The Preamble

  4. The Declaration of Rights

The correct answer is: The Bill of Rights

The Federalist Papers were a series of essays written in support of ratifying the United States Constitution and were not a part of the Constitution itself. The Preamble is the introductory statement to the Constitution and does not contain any amendments. The Declaration of Rights refers to a document drafted by Thomas Jefferson, but it is not the same as the first ten amendments. Therefore, the only correct option is B The Bill of Rights, which consists of the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution. These amendments were added in 1791 and protect individual rights and limit the power of the government.
