Suggested Answer: 
    

Box 1: Hash -
Hash-distributed tables improve query performance on large fact tables. hey can have very large numbers of rows and still achieve high performance.
Incorrect:
Round-robin tables are useful for improving loading speed.
Box 2: Clustered columnstore -
When creating partitions on clustered columnstore tables, it is important to consider how many rows belong to each partition. For optimal compression and performance of clustered columnstore tables, a minimum of 1 million rows per distribution and partition is needed.
Box 3: Date -
Table partitions enable you to divide your data into smaller groups of data. In most cases, table partitions are created on a date column.
Partition switching can be used to quickly remove or replace a section of a table.
