use law of sines to find B but you might have 2 triangles
\[\frac{\sin(A)}{a}=\frac{\sin(B)}{b}\]
deja vu all over again
\[\frac{\sin(130^o)}{52}=\frac{\sin(B)}{31}\]
\[\frac{31}{52} \sin(130^o)=\sin(B)\]
\[B=\sin^{-1}(\frac{31}{52}\sin(130^o))\]
making \[B=27.17\] http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=arcsine%2831*sin%28130%29%2F52%29
only one triangle here, because if A = 130 you don't get two choices for B and C
B'=180-27.17=152.83 but A+B'>180 so you only have one triangle
i found b. its just angle c and side c i didnt find
what myininaya said.
angle C you get because the angles have to add to 180 so it is \[180-130-27.17\]
A+B=130+27.27=157.17 C=180-(A+B)=22.83
and then repeat process to find side c
i have to do work!!!
me too
