sin A=(opposite leg)/hypotenuse= 3/5=0.6
For angle A , opposite leg is BC=3
Hypotenuse = 5

Based on the right-angle triangle shown below, the sine of ∠A include the following: B.) 3/5.

In order to determine the magnitude of angle A, we would apply the basic sine trigonometric ratio because the given side lengths represent the opposite side (CB) and hypotenuse (AB) of a right-angled triangle;

sin(θ) = Opp/Hyp

Where:

  • Opp represent the opposite side of a right-angled triangle.
  • Hyp represent the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle.
  • θ represent the angle.

Based on sine trigonometric ratio, the magnitude of angle A can be calculated as follows:

sin(θ) = Opp/Hyp

sin(A) = CB/AB

sin(A) = 3/5.

In conclusion, we can reasonably and logically deduce that the sine of angle A (m∠A) is 3/5.
