Correct Answer: $\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}$


Solution : Given: $8 \cot A = 7$
⇒ $\cot A = \frac{7}{8}$
We know that $\operatorname{cosec^2 A}-\cot^2A=1$
⇒ $\operatorname{cosec^2 A}- (\frac{7}{8})^2=1$
⇒ $\operatorname{cosec^2 A}=1+\frac{49}{64}$
⇒ $\operatorname{cosec A}=\sqrt{\frac{113}{64}}=\frac{\sqrt{113}}{8}$
⇒ $\sin A=\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}$.
