Correct Answer: The window was opened by him.


Solution : The third option is the correct choice.

Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the passive sentence in the simple present tense is, object + was + past participle form of the main verb + by + subject.

Therefore, the sentence in the passive voice is: The window was opened by him.
