Two triangles can be formed with the given information. Use the Law of Sines to solve the triangles.

A = 61°, a = 17, b = 19

Question

Two triangles can be formed with the given information. Use the Law of Sines to solve the triangles. 

A = 61°, a = 17, b = 19

anonymous · Answer

Two triangles can not be formed with the given information.

The information gives only the lengths of 2 legs and their angle of intersect.

anonymous · Answer

BTW, the 2 legs can be closed, and the triangle "solved" using sines, but improper questions make me antsy.

anonymous · Answer

$$\frac{\sin(B)}{19}=\frac{\sin(61)}{17}$$
$$B=\arcsin(\frac{19\sin(61)}{17})$$

anonymous · Answer

now you have to angles, 61 and 77.83 you can easily find the third, since the sum is 180

anonymous · Answer

*two

anonymous · Answer

if there is another one, the angle B will be $180-77.83=102.17$
