Explanation

Waterfall is a sequential, phase-based methodology where each stage (requirements, design, development, testing, deployment) is completed before the next begins. The final product is delivered at the end of the process, making it ideal when stakeholders want a single review of the completed product rather than iterative feedback. If requirements are unclear (A), agile is preferred. Constant delivery of components (C) describes agile/continuous delivery. Reducing budget (D) is not a methodology-selection driver.
