Correct Answer: (2)


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The sentence is in the past perfect tense, as it is telling about an event that was completed after a past event. Thus, the correct usage is "he had to get" in place of "he must have".

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The arm was so badly injured that he had to get it amputated.
