Answer:
a = 
b = 12
c = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are right triangles with 60 and 45 degree angles, their side lengths follow special triangles.
A 45-45-90 right triangle has side lengths 
.
A 30-60-90 right triangle has side lengths 
.
Starting with the top triangle which has a 60 degree angle, its side length 6 corresponds to a side length of 1 in the special triangle. It is 6 times bigger so its remaining sides will be 6 times bigger too.
Side a corresponds to side length 
. Therefore, 
.
Side b corresponds to side length 2, b = 2*6 = 12.
The bottom triangle has a 45 degree angle, its side length b= 12 corresponds to 
. This means was multiplied by 
. This means that side c is 
.

Answer:
48.8 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
The forces can be modeled by a triangle with acute angles 20° and 26°, and obtuse angle 134° opposite a side of length 80. The larger component force will be opposite the angle 26°, and can be found using the Law of Sines:
a/sin(A) = c/sin(C)
x/sin(26°) = 80/sin(134°)
x = 80sin(26°)/sin(134°) ≈ 48.753 . . . . pounds
The larger component force is about 48.8 pounds.
