It is a transitive verb

Tripp Martin · Answer 2

The correct answer is "transitive verb"

Explanation:

A transitive verb is one that needs an object to complete an idea or thought. In the example provided, the verb "built" needs an object (the city of Alexandria) to fully complete its meaning.

An intransitive verb on the other hand does not need an object since it has meaning on its own.
