Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pathfinders allow for combining and manipulating shapes in Adobe Illustrator. The "combine" function within the pathfinder panel can be used to merge overlapping shapes, which is what Kate would use to create her new shape. Smart objects and conversion tools are not relevant to this process, and paths on their own do not provide the necessary toolset to combine overlapping shapes.
