Explanation:

During the fifteen and sixteenth century some of the European countries sent ships to travel to unexplored land in order to find new routes or sources that could support the development of European countries, this countries included England, Spain, and Portugal. In the case of Portugal Prince Henry also called the Navigator led many Portuguese explorations by the end of the fifteen century (around 1492) in search of a new trading route to Asia as sailing around the southern tip of Africa could be faster and better than the land route they already had, this led Portuguese to explorations that took them to India by sailing around Africa in 1498 and a different exploration took them to  Japan in 1542 achieving their purpose of reaching India by Sailing around Africa. Additionally to this, with the arrival of Christopher Columbus to the New World (Discovery of America), there were multiple Portuguese ships that sailed to America after 1492. Thus, the correct answer is in 1492 Portuguese explorers believed they could get to Asia more quickly by sailing around the southern tip of Africa.
