Answer:
(b) side WU
Step-by-step explanation:
With respect to any given acute angle in a right triangle, the sides of the triangle are called "adjacent", "opposite", or "hypotenuse".
The two sides that form angle W are WU and WV. Side WV is the longest, opposite the right angle, so it is the hypotenuse. Side WU is "adjacent" to angle W, and side UV is "opposite" angle W.
(It can help to note that the name of the opposite side UV does not contain the letter of the angle W. The name of the adjacent side WU does contain the letter of the angle.)
