Answer:

see below

Explanation:

You know α = 32° because the sum of angles must be 180°.

The angles, least to greatest, are ...

α = 32°, γ = 48°, β = 100°

so the order of side lengths, least to greatest, will be a, c, b.

The only answer choice with side lengths in that order is the one shown below.

_____

If only one side length and two angles are given, the triangle always has a solution.
