intrepid : audacious ::
  1. ludicrous : prudent
  2. salient : significant
  3. implicit : stated
  4. condign : undeserved
Explanation
Answer: Choice (B) is correct.

Intrepid and audacious both mean bold and daring, so look for the answer pair that contains synonyms. In choice (A), ludicrous means nonsensical or absurd, and prudent means thoughtful or wise, so eliminate that choice. In choice (C), implicit means unspoken or implied, not stated, so eliminate that choice. In choice (D), condign means well-deserved or appropriate, not undeserved, so eliminate that choice. The only answer choice that contains synonyms is choice (B). Salient means relevant, or significant, so that is the correct choice.
