Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Let,}} \cr & {\text{ }}\frac{x}{{\sqrt {128} }} = \frac{{\sqrt {162} }}{x} \cr & {\text{Then,}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {x^2} = \sqrt {128 \times 162} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {x^2} = \sqrt {64 \times 2 \times 18 \times 9} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {x^2} = \sqrt {{8^2} \times {6^2} \times {3^2}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {x^2} = 8 \times 6 \times 3 \cr & \Leftrightarrow {x^2} = 144 \cr & \Leftrightarrow x = \sqrt {144} \cr & \Leftrightarrow x = 12 \cr} $$
