Answer:

sin B =
(√(85) )/(17)

Explanation:

note that
√(a) ×
√(a) = a

sin B =
(opposite)/(hypotenuse) =
(CD)/(BD) =
(5)/(√(85) )

to simplify, rationalise the denominator by multiplying numerator and denominator by
√(85) , then

sin B =
(5(√(85)) )/(√(85)(√(85)) ) =
(5(√(85)) )/(85) =
(√(85) )/(17)
