b. If I were just five inches taller, I could see the bald spot on top of my dad's head without standing on a chair.
It is always right to say 'If I were" instead of "If I was"

The correct choice is B: If I were just five inches taller, I could see the bald spot on top of my dad's head without standing on a chair. The reason is because "were" is used future tense, meaning that he WANTED it, but it will not come right now.

Hope this helped!
