To adjudicate means to:

Estimate damages in court
Decide a matter based on evidence presented
Summon a witness
Settle a case out of court

The correct answer is: Decide a matter based on evidence presented

Adjudicate refers specifically to the legal process of making a formal judgment or decision about a dispute. This term is primarily used in the context of courts or administrative agencies, where a judge or an authoritative body evaluates the evidence presented and makes a ruling based on that evidence. The focus on deciding a matter based on the evidence ensures that the legal proceedings are fair and grounded in facts, rather than assumptions or informal agreements. The other options focus on different aspects of legal proceedings. Estimating damages in court is a specific type of adjudication but doesn’t encompass the broader definition. Summoning a witness involves the procedural aspect of bringing someone to court, rather than making a decision on a case. Settling a case out of court refers to resolving a matter before it reaches adjudication, which does not involve the formal judgment or decision-making process inherent to adjudication.
