A. proved that ships could sail south, around the tip of Africa, and then eastward to Asia.

Prince Henry of Portugal, also known as Henry the Navigator, is described by B, C, and D; his position as a prince let him authorize and sponsor explorations.  Answer choice A is referring to a different explorer, Bartolomeu Dias.

I think your answer would be A.
