From the law of sines, we have:

\displaystyle{ \frac{\sin \angle X}{x}= \frac{\sin \angle Y}{y}, 

where x and y are the sides opposite to angles X and Y, respectively.


Substituting the known values, we have:



\displaystyle{ \frac{51^{\circ}}{5}= \frac{\sin \angle Y}{2}, thus

                           \displaystyle{ \sin \angle Y=\frac{\sin 51^{\circ}}{5}\cdot2\approx \frac{0.777}{5}\cdot2=0.31.


Using a calculator, we can find that arcsin(0.31)=18 degrees, approximately.

We know that sine of (180-18)=162 degrees is also 0.31. But 162 and 51 degrees add up to more than 180 degrees.

Thus, there is only one triangle that can be formed under these conditions.

The product of 16 and 4 less than a number is 208. Find the number.
svlad2 [7]
This is a word problem signifying an algebraic expression.

Translating this to mathematics:

16x - 4 = 208

add 4 to both sides.

16x = 212 

divide 16 to both sides. 

x = \frac{212}{16} 

this is:

x = 13.25

Whats 126/399 in its simplest form
marusya05 [52]
A common factor of both 126 and 399 is 3 so we can divide both numbers by 3.

126 / 3 = 42
399 / 3 = 133

A common factor for both 42 and 133 is 7 so we can divide both numbers by 7.

42 / 7 = 6
133 / 7 = 19

19 is a prime number so we can't reduce it anymore, therefore 126/399 in its simplest form is 6/19
