Hint: Adjectives are words that are used to describe, or modify a noun or a pronoun. by describing a particular feature.

Complete step-by-step answer:

 An adjective is one among the parts of speech which are used to construct grammatically meaningful sentences. It modifies or describes a particular feature, quality or quantity of a thing or person. These words help in a vivid description of something.
Example: It is a red balloon; Radha has long hair.
Here, the given noun is ‘glory.’ It refers to great beauty, magnificence, or high fame. It can be used in a sentence as in – India’s struggle for freedom achieved its glory.
But, to well describe its marvel, we use the adjective of ‘glory’ – glorious.
We intend to describe the glory or magnificence of something using this adjective.
Example: India’s struggle for freedom is the most glorious in its history.
Thus, option b becomes the right answer.
Although we tend to use ‘gloriful’ in our daily usage, it is proven wrong as an adjective to glory. Option a is therefore wrong.
The terms ‘gloriles’ and ‘gloryish’ are not used in English language and hence options c and d can be ruled out.

Note: Do not confuse an adverb with an adjective. Gloriously is the adverb form of glory. Though most of the adverbs end with –ly, words like heavenly, ghastly are adjectives.
