2. Solve triangle ABC which have angle A=250.251, angle B=600.511 and a=3.82. Find b.
5.0cm
7.8cm
7.1cm
6.7cm
Solution
The values you've given for A and B are unrealistic, because the sum of angles of triangle should be 180∘ (but only angle A=250.251°>180°).
But if there is a typo in the task and the real values of angles are A=25°25', B=60°51', then the problem can be solved by using law of sines:
sinAa=sinBb=sinCc.
So
1. Given A=25∘25′, B=60∘51′, a=3.82. Then C=180∘−A−B=180∘−25∘25′−60∘51′=93∘44′ and c=sinAa⋅sinC=sin(25∘25′)3.82⋅sin(93∘44′)=8.88≈8.9.
2. Given A=25∘25′, B=60∘51′, a=3.82. Then C=180∘−A−B=180∘−25∘25′−60∘51′=93∘44′ and b=sinAa⋅sinB=sin(25∘25′)3.82⋅sin(60∘51′)=7.77≈7.8.
**Answer:** 1. 8.9.
2. 7.8.
