A. is right becuase you apply the sine correctly

B. Is right because you apply the cosine correctly

C. Is worg rong becuase not use tangent right

if you use tangent with angle 23°, should be


\begin{gathered} \tan (23)=(BC)/(7.2) \\ \\ BC=7.2\tan (23) \end{gathered}

then c is a wrong way to apply Tangent and you are not finding BC

Finally right option is C
