Answer:

The second one

Explanation:

A visual for law of sines can be found below

Sin (an angles) over its opposite side length is equal to sin ( a different angle) over its opposite side length

In the given triangle we are given side length BC and side length AB

we are also given AB's opposite angle (40)

And we need to find side length BC's opposite angle (A)

That being said we are given enough information to set up an equation using the law of sines

Remember angle A's opposite side length is 16 and the angle that has a measure of 40 degrees' opposite side length is 12

so the equation would look like...


(sin(40))/(12) =(sin(A))/(16)
