Answer:

the answer is the option A


(sin23\°)/(6.2)=(sin85\°)/(b)

Explanation:

Step 1

Find the measure of angle C

we know that

the sum of the internal angles of the triangle is equal to
180\°

so


C= 180\°-72\°-85\°=23\°

Step 2

Applying the law of sines


(sinC)/(c)=(sinB)/(b)

substitute the values


(sin23\°)/(6.2)=(sin85\°)/(b)
