c. It caused Americans to take an active role in the fighting.
The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution (1964) gave President Johnson broad authority to use U.S. military force in Vietnam without a formal declaration of war, enabling large-scale troop deployments and direct combat operations. (It also helped set the stage for the later growth of the antiwar movement as the war escalated.)
