(A) For a square planar complex of the type $M(abcd)$,there are $3$ possible geometric isomers.In the case of $MAXBL$,we can fix one ligand (e.g.,$M$) and arrange the others.There are $2$ isomers where two specific ligands are in the $cis$ position (adjacent) and $1$ isomer where they are in the $trans$ position (opposite).Thus,the complex shows $2$ $cis$ and $1$ $trans$ isomers.
