Question restatement: According to our textbook, which of the following statements is true about the multiplane camera?

Option 1: 'It cost over $100,000 to build' 
- Evaluation: This claim focuses on the cost of building the multiplane camera. Without the textbook confirming a specific figure, this statement is likely unreliable as the sole truth claim. Many production technologies involve high costs, but the question asks for what is true according to the textbook, so unless the text explicitly states this price, we should treat it as questionable. Therefore, this option is not the one the textbook identifies as true.

Option 2: 'The first Silly Symphonies short to utilize the multiplane camera was The Ugly Duckling' 
- Evaluation: This option asserts a specific historical milestone. While The Ugly Duckling is a well-known Disney short from the early sound era, whether it was the first Silly Symphonies to use the multiplane camera depends on the textbook’s phrasing and the historical timeline it presents. If the textbook assigns the first multiplane usage to a different short, or to a different production year, this statement would be false within that context. In the absence of explicit textbook support, this claim is risky and likely incorrect as the sole true statement.

Option 3: 'Engineers were needed to figure out the mathematics of drawing and photographing the animation shot on the multiplane camera' 
- Evaluation: This option asserts that engineers were required to develop the mathematical and technical methods for both drawing and photographing shots with the multiplane camera. This aligns with the plausible historical role of engineers in solving complex parallax, depth, and synchronization challenges inherent to the multiplane setup. If the textbook indeed credits engineers with solving the mathematical and technical aspects for how the shots were drawn and photographed, this statement would be true. It directly ties to the core technical challenge of the multiplane camera and its operation.

Option 4: 'According to our textbook, all of these answers are correct' 
- Evaluation: For this to be true, options 1–3 would all have to be correct. Given the uncertainties about the precise cost figure (option 1) and the milestone claim (option 2), it is unlikely that both are definitively true as stated. Unless the textbook explicitly confirms every single one of the claims, this option is generally unlikely to be the correct choice.

Summary of analysis: The most defensible true statement, when anchored to the textbook’s likely emphasis on the technical and mathematical challenges of the multiplane camera, is that engineers were needed to figure out the mathematics of drawing and photographing the animation shot. The other options hinge on cost figures or milestone claims that would require explicit textbook confirmation, and without that confirmation they remain speculative or incorrect. The option asserting all are correct would require each individual claim to be verifiably true, which is improbable given common historical ambiguities over exact costs and first usage milestones.
