Answer: Choice B

a = 12, b = 3*sqrt(17)

========================================================

Work Shown:

3/a = a/48

3*48 = a^2

a^2 = 144

a = sqrt(144)

a = 12

--------------------

a^2 + 3^2 = b^2 ... pythagorean theorem

12^2 + 3^2 = b^2

144 + 9 = b^2

b^2 = 153

b = sqrt(153)

b = sqrt(9*17)

b = sqrt(9)*sqrt(17)

b = 3*sqrt(17)
