Correct Answer: She is an Indian artist married to a European engineer.


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The correct use of the indefinite articles "an" and "a" depends on the initial sound of the following word. "An" is used before words that begin with a vowel sound, while "a" is used before words that start with a consonant sound. In this case, "Indian" begins with a vowel sound, and "European" begins with a consonant sound.
