Explanation:
Dangling modifiers are those words or phrases that modify words but their subject or the word that's modified is not specifically mentioned or identifiable. In simple words, the grammatical error where the modifier is wrongly used without the presence of the word being modified is called a case of a dangling modifier.
In the given sentences, options (a) and (c) have no dangling modifiers in them while the rest contains dangling modifiers.
In option (a), the subject modified is "the salesman" and in option (c), it is Agnes.
The dangling modifiers in the other sentences are as follows-
b. "Chopping vegetables"
d. "Using a hose and sponge"
e. "Trying on a new dress"
f. "Avoiding the police"
In all these sentences, the subject being modified is missing.
