The correct answer is A. He was the first European to reach India by sailing around Africa

Explanation:

Bartolomeu Dias was a nobleman in the Portuguese royal household and an explorer. In 1487 he began an expedition to find a new trade route from Europe to India and as a result during around ten months he sailed around Africa and finally reached India in 1488, establishing a new route from Europe to Asia. Bartolomeu's trip was not only important for creating a new trade route but because Dias was the first European explorer that could sail to the southern tip of Africa and then reached India by sailing around this continent.
