Answer:

∠B = 19°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In triangle ABC, if ∠A = 120°, a = 8, and b = 3

We have to find the measure of B that is ∠B

Consider the given triangle ABC,

Using Sine rule ,

For a triangle with measure of angle A, B and C and side  a faces angle A,  

side b faces angle B and  side c faces angle C

\frac{a}{\sin A}=\frac{b}{\sin B}=\frac{c}{\sin C}

we have, a = 8 , b = 3 and ∠A = 120°

Consider first two ratios,

\frac{8}{\sin 120^{\circ}}=\frac{3}{\sin B}

Solve for B, we have,

\sin \left(120^{\circ \:}\right)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

\frac{8}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}=\frac{3}{\sin \left(B\right)}

\mathrm{Apply\:fraction\:cross\:multiply:\:if\:}\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}\mathrm{\:then\:}a\cdot \:d=b\cdot \:c

8\sin \left(B\right)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cdot \:3

Simplify, we have,

\sin \left(B\right)=\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{16}

Taking sine inverse both side, we have,

B=\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{16}\right)

We have, B=18.95^{\circ \:}

Thus, ∠B = 19°

Use the sine law: sinB/b = sinA/a

SinB = b*sinA/a

sinB = 3*sin120° /8

∠ B = 18.94° ≈ 19°
