THE CORRECT
ANSWER IS
ZERO
Answer: Choice C) 2
----------------------------------------------
Explanation:
Using the law of sines, we get
sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c
sin(18)/7 = sin(C)/11
0.0441452849107 = sin(C)/11
11*0.0441452849107 = sin(C)
0.4855981340177 = sin(C)
sin(C) = 0.4855981340177
C = arcsin(0.4855981340177) or C = 180-arcsin(0.4855981340177)
C = 29.0516679549861 or C = 150.948332045013
There are two possibilities for angle C because of something like sin(30) = sin(150) = 1/2 = 0.5
Those approximate values of C round to
C = 29.05 and C = 150.95
If C = 29.05, then angle A is
A = 180-B-C
A = 180-18-29.05
A = 132.95
Making this triangle possible since angle A is a positive number
If C = 150.95, then angle A is
A = 180-B-C
A = 180-18-150.95
A = 11.05
making this triangle possible since angle A is a positive number
There are two distinct triangles that can be formed.
One triangle is with the angles: A = 132.95, B = 18, C = 29.05
The other triangle is with the angles: A = 11.05, B = 18, C = 150.95
The decimal values are approximate
Answer:
The first choice is correct
You can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2, to solve this.
b= square-root of (c^2)-(a^2)
b= square-root of (9^2)-(2^2)
b= 8.77.... which in the exact form is square root of 77.
