`A = 36^@, a = 8, b = 5` Use the law of sines to solve the triangle. (Find missing sides/angles) Round answers to 2 decimal places.

The sine law indicates that in a triangle;


`(sinA)/a =(sinB)/b =(sinC)/c`


a,b,c are the lengths of the triangle and A,B,C are the opposite angles as shown in image.



`(sinA)/a =(sinB)/b`


`sin36/8 = sinB/5`


`B = sin^(-1)(sin36xx5/8) = 21.55^0`



Angle C `= 180-21.55-36 = 122.45^0`



`(sinB)/b =(sinC)/c`


`c = (sin122.45xx5)/sin21.55 = 11.49`



So the answers are;


Angle B = 21.55 deg


Angle C = 122.45 deg


Length c = 11.49 units
