The correct answer is option A.  9

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

The ratio of of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal.

To find the value of n

From the figure we can see two similar triangles.

Here the ratio of sides is 1/2

Therefore we can write,

39/(n² - 3) = 1/2

2 * 39 = n² - 3

n² = 78 + 3

n = 81

n = ± 9

n = 9

The correct answer is option A.  9
