use the given measurements to solve triangle ABC. Round your answers to the nearest tenth. Show work.

  b.  b = 15.0, A = 113.2°, C = 300°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sides are either side of the given angle, so the Law of Cosines can be used to find the unknown side.

  b² = a² +c² -2ac·cos(B)

  b² = 23² +12.5² -2(23)(12.5)cos(36.8°) = 224.829

  b = √224.829 = 14.99 ≈ 15.0 . . . . . matches choice B

If you want to find the remaining angles, you can use the law of sines to find one of them. The smallest angle* will be ...

  sin(C)/c = sin(B)/b

  C = arcsin(c/b·sin(B)) = arcsin(12.5/14.9942·sin(36.8°)) ≈ 30.0°

Then angle A can be found from the sum of angles in a triangle:

  A = 180° -36.8° -30° = 113.2° . . . . . also matches choice B

* We choose to find the smallest angle because the largest one may be more than 90°. The Law of Sines is ambiguous in that case. Finding the smaller angle first resolves the ambiguity immediately.

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
