All angles of a triangle have to equal 180 degrees. The top and bottom triangle are the same. So the first angle tells you 32 degrees. The second one has a little square which means 90 degrees. So 180 - 32 - 90 = 58.
So the angle A is 58. Since the top triangle and bottom triangle have the same angle measurement then angle C = 58 degrees.

The trig function sine, often abbreviated as "sin" (pronounced the same way as "sine"), is essentially the ratio or fraction of the opposite side and the hypotenuse. See the attached image for a reference.

The leg opposite angle B is side AC. Note how B is not present in the sequence "AC". Visually, we are as far away as possible from point B. This side is 16 units long. So AC = 16

The hypotenuse is the longest side of the right triangle. Always always always. This longest side is opposite the largest angle (90 degrees). Therefore the hypotenuse is BC = 17.46

In summary so far, we have,
opposite side = AC = 16
hypotenuse BC = 17.46

Let's use those values to compute sin(B)

sin(Angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(B) = AC/BC
sin(B) = 16/17.46
sin(B) = 0.916 (this is approximate)
sin(B) = 0.92 (rounding to nearest hundredth)

This points to the final answer of choice A) 0.92
