Answer: x = 15.035677095729 approximately

Round this however you need to.

=================================================

Explanation:

I'm assuming you want to find the value of x, which your diagram is showing to be the length of segment QR.

If so, then we'll need to find the measure of angle Q first. Using the law of sines, we get the following:

sin(Q)/q = sin(R)/r

sin(Q)/PR = sin(R)/PQ

sin(Q)/13 = sin(85)/19

sin(Q) = 13*sin(85)/19

sin(Q) = 0.6816068987

Q = arcsin(0.6816068987) ... or ... Q = 180-arcsin(0.6816068987)

Q = 42.9693397461 ... or ... Q = 137.0306602539

These values are approximate.

----------------

Now if Q = 42.9693397461 approximately, then angle P is

P = 180-Q-R

P = 180-42.9693397461-85

P = 52.0306602539

Similarly, if Q = 137.0306602539 approximately, then,

P = 180-Q-R

P = 180-137.0306602539-85

P = -42.0306602539

A negative angle is not possible, so we'll ignore Q = 137.0306602539

----------------

The only possible value of angle P is approximately P = 52.0306602539

Let's apply the law of sines again to find side p, aka segment QR

sin(P)/p = sin(R)/r

sin(P)/QR = sin(R)/PQ

sin(52.0306602539)/x = sin(85)/19

19*sin(52.0306602539) = x*sin(85)

19*sin(52.0306602539)/sin(85) = x

x = 15.035677095729

This value is approximate.

Round this value however you need to.

<h3>Who was Leonhard Euler?</h3>

Leonhard Euler was a mathematician from Switzerland. He introduced the fundamentals of graph theory and topology.

His main field of work includes number theory, mechanics, fluid mechanics, and many more.

The life span of Euler was between 1707 and 1783. In the last few years of his life, he lost the eye sight. But the eye sight loss doesn't affect him from doing his work. In his lifespan, he published around 886 books and articles on various fields or science, mathematics and engineering.

After the total blindness, he published more than 450 books and articles.
