What is an affidavit?

  1. A legal document outlining a person's will

  2. A written statement of facts sworn to before an authorized person

  3. A document detailing a legal transaction

  4. A certification of a notary's authority

The correct answer is: A written statement of facts sworn to before an authorized person

An affidavit is a written statement of facts that are sworn or affirmed under oath by an authorized person, such as a notary, to be true and accurate. It is commonly used in legal proceedings and serves as evidence or proof of the information stated. Option A is incorrect because a will is a document outlining a person's wishes for their assets after their death, not a statement of facts. Option C is incorrect because a legal transaction would involve a contract or agreement between parties, not a written statement. Option D is incorrect because it is a notary's stamp or seal that authenticates a document, not a notary's authority.
