SLANTED COLUMN STYLE

Hi, could anyone help me? I do not understand how to tell if the slanted column style is End-Point Driven or Angle Driven and I don't want to take the Exam until I get this concept right... I took the Pre-Test and got it wrong when I selected End-Point Driven and dont't understand why, here is a screen shot of the Pre-Test question on the left and a more zoomed in photo of it at the right:

it is angle driven because end point can't be vertical

@Ahmed_Muharram Thank you so much for replyig! The problem is that while studying for the pre-test, I did try making an End-Point driven vertical and it was possible too.. that's why I'm finding it so hard to tell between them, here is a screenshot:

Just draw four columns for the four options and see which one matches.  My guess is Vertical.

@ToanDN Thank you for replying! Tha problem with that is that if it was Verical, I do not think it would display the cut style options, and the photo Autodesk shows in the exam question does show Base Cut Style and Top Cut Style.. that's why I believe is has to be either Slanted End-Point Driven or Slanted Angle Driven... I just do know how to tell between them...

The only difference i see are the blue arrows by endpoint driven, but i don't see them at all in the question.

@EdwinG That is a very smart observation you made, because I think that Angle-Driven columns only display the regular point control when selected (blue dot) and End-Point Driven columns display both when selected (blue dot and arrows). But then I don't understand why the exercise doesn't show either of them...
