Correct Answer: $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$


Solution : $\theta+\phi=\frac{\pi}{2}=90°$---------(i)
Also, $\sin \theta = \frac{1}{2}=\sin 30°$
$⇒\theta =30°$
Putting $\theta = 30°$ in (i), we get:
$30° + \phi=90°$
$⇒\phi=60°$
So, $\sin \phi= \sin 60° = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$.
