Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) From the given figure, it is given that [tex]AC=8[/tex], [tex]AB=16[/tex] and [tex]CB=8\sqrt{3}[/tex], thus using the trigonomtery, we have
[tex]\frac{AC}{AB}=sinB[/tex]
⇒[tex]\frac{8}{16}=sinB[/tex]
⇒[tex]\frac{1}{2}=sinB[/tex]
⇒[tex]B=sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})[/tex]
⇒[tex]B=30^{\circ}[/tex]
therefore, the measure of the angle B is 30°.
Hence, option A is correct.
(2) From the given figure, using the trigonometry, we have
[tex]\frac{x}{20}=sin35^{\circ}[/tex]
⇒[tex]x=20{\times}sin35^{\circ}[/tex]
⇒[tex]x=20{\times}0.573[/tex]
⇒[tex]x=11.5[/tex]
Thus, option C is correct.
