Answer:

B

Explanation:

Using the law of sines, we can make a proportion.

But first, we'll need to solve for the unknown angle.

We add up the two known angles and subtract that by 180.

90 + 41 = 131

180 - 131 = 49

So the unknown angles is 49.

Then, we can use the law of sines.

Make the equation.

sin(90)/55 = sin(49)/x

Simplify this using a calculator and you get around 41.51 or option B.
