C)\:(15)/(17)

1) As we can see, this is a right triangle. So, we can tell that the sine of angle A is:


\begin{gathered} \sin(A)=(opposite\;leg\:to\:angle\:A)/(hypotenuse) \\ \\ \sin(A)=(30)/(34)\:\:Simplify\:it \\ \\ \sin(A)=(15)/(17) \end{gathered}

Note that we need to simplify that whenever possible. Thus, the answer is :


(15)/(17)
