RC4 is a classic symmetric cipher, so that's definitely not the right answer. Gotta be Diffie-Hellman!

I remember learning about Diffie-Hellman in my cryptography class. That's definitely the asymmetric one here.

Hmm, Diffie-Hellman is the only one that sounds like an asymmetric algorithm to me. The others are all symmetric ciphers.

I'm not sure, but I think RC4 is also an option. Can someone explain why Diffie-Hellman is the correct answer?

I agree with Johnna, Diffie-Hellman is an asymmetric encryption algorithm.
