Verified Answer :

I believe the answer is C 14.5

Answer:

The value of BC is 14.5 cm .

Step-by-step explanation:

Now by using the trignometric identity .

\(sin\theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\)

As given

\(\theta = 65^{\circ}\)

Perpendicular = BC = x

Hypotenuse = AB = 16 cm

\(sin\theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\)

\(sin\ 65^{\circ} = \frac{x}{AB}\)

\(0.9063\ (Approx) = \frac{x}{16}\)

x = 0.9063 × 16

x = 14.5 cm (Approx)

x = BC = 14.5 cm

Therefore the value of BC is 14.5 cm .
