Answer:

option B

Explanation:

Given: the measurement of angles x and z are 60 and 43 respectively

Sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degree

∠x +∠y+∠z= 180

60 +∠y+43= 180

∠y+103=180 (subtract 103 from both sides)

∠y=77

Angle y is the biggest angle , the side opposite to the biggest angles is the longest side

The side opposite to ∠y is XZ

So the longest side is side XZ
