| (ii) Self-employed | (b) Workers using their own resources to earn livelihood |

(C) (i)-(c); (ii)-(b); (iii)-(a); (iv)-(d)
Explanation:
(i) Seasonal Unemployment → (c)
This type of unemployment occurs during a particular season, especially in agriculture.
(ii) Self-employed → (b)
Self-employed persons use their own resources to earn income, such as shopkeepers and farmers.
(iii) Unorganised Sector → (a)
It includes small private enterprises employing less than 10 workers without formal regulations.
(iv) Disguised Unemployment → (d)
In this situation, some workers have zero marginal productivity, meaning removing them does not affect output.
Hence, the correct matching is:\((i)-(c),(ii)-(b),(iii)-(a),(iv)-(d)\)
