b
For Test 1, the rejection probability is increasing in θ, so its size over θ≤0 is attained at θ=0 and equals
P0​(X1​>0.95)=0.05.
(1)
Test 2 is also monotone under shifts in θ, so its size is P0​(U1​+U2​>C). For 1≤C≤2, the triangular upper tail is
P(U1​+U2​>C)=2(2−C)2​.
(2)
Equating this to 0.05 gives
C=2−10​1​​.
