Answer: second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

You must apply $sin\alpha=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

Then, given the right triangle and the angle D, the opposite side and the hypotenuse of the triangle are the following:

$opposite=20\\hypotenuse=25$

Therefore, when you substitute values, you have:

$sinD=\frac{20}{25}$

Reduce the fraction, then you obtain:

$sinD=\frac{4}{5}$
