Question
consider a triangle ( abc ) like the one below. suppose that ( b = 8 ), ( a = 25 ), and ( b = 64^{circ} ). (the figure is not drawn to scale.) solve the triangle. carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answers to the nearest tenth. if no such triangle exists, enter
o solution.\ if there is more than one solution, use the button labeled \or\.
Step1: Apply the Law of Sines
The Law of Sines states that \(\frac{a}{\sin A}=\frac{b}{\sin B}\). We know \(a = 25\), \(b = 8\), and \(B=64^{\circ}\). So, \(\sin A=\frac{a\sin B}{b}\).
Substitute the values: \(\sin A=\frac{25\sin64^{\circ}}{8}\).
Since \(\sin64^{\circ}\approx0.8988\), then \(\sin A=\frac{25\times0.8988}{8}=\frac{22.47}{8}=2.80875\).
But the range of the sine function is \([- 1,1]\). Since \(2.80875>1\), no such triangle exists.
