The Correct Answer would be Salutation. Dear Sir is basically an example of salutation in a business letter.

Explanation:

A Business Letter is a type of letter, written formally and professionally to the heads and chiefs of any big organization, intended for a professional purpose. While writing the business letter, if the name of a particular high authority person is unknown to the writer, he/she can use the salutation "Dear Sir/Madam" to denote them in their letter. If the name is already known, then it is better to avoid writing this salutation and instead going directly for full name as it sounds more professional. Nowadays, people mostly avoid writing the Dear Sir salutation because of it's unprofessional tone.
