A and E. You need a third party cert to work with Office 365.

I think the answer may be A.
E is a self-signed server authentication certificate. Although AD FS does use self-signed certs, they are token-signing certs, not server authentication. Office 365 does not support anything but trusted third-party certs

Agree A only

You do NOT need a certificate from a third-party root CA for this. See link: http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2015/09/11/step-by-step-setting-up-ad-fs-and-enabling-single-sign-on-to-office-365.aspx

Either D or E will work.

Agree with Billy

A is all that is needed.

E in this case would be server authentication, not token-signing.

Forget ALL these other links. Look here, its clear as day:

The only answer is A.

Not B or C or D – A is required for AD FS… the rest are not required as they are either privately issued, or have a short/private UPN.

Not E – E refers to server authentication certificates, the requirements asks for a token-signing certificate. Token signing certificates are generated automatically and Microsoft recommends that we use the default certificate as it has the benefit of updating itself when it expires etc.

As fdmo said, in the exam there is actually only one choice. If there are two choices in the exam, then I imagine E would refer to a token-signing certificate which you may then select.
