OE
There are three clues in this sentence: challenging, vexed, which means confused, and involute, which means complicated. Write down something like "challenging" for the blank. Choice (A), transparent, is the exact opposite of the predicted answer; cross it off. Luculent(clear or cogent) and perspicuous(lucid) also contradict "challenging" but don't eliminate them if you don't know what they mean. Labyrinthine and byzantine both mean extremely complex and intricate, which are qualities likely to be "challenging," so (D) and (E) are the credited responses.
