- Law of sines to solve for
b:


(\sin72^\circ)/(9.5)=(\sin b^\circ)/(7.1)\implies b\approx45.3

- The sum of the measures of interior angles of any triangle is
180^\circ. Use this to solve for
a:


a+b+72=180\implies a\approx62.7

- Law of cosines to solve for
c:


c^2=7.1^2+9.5^2-2\cdot7.1\cdot9.5\cos a\implies c\approx6.92

(2)
- Sum of interior angles:


31+122+d=180\implies d=27

- Law of sines to solve for
e:


\frac{\sin122^\circ}e=(\sin31^\circ)/(6.4)\implies e\approx10.54

(3)
- Sum of interior angles:


75+37+f=180\implies f=68

- Law of sines to solve for
g and
h:


\frac{\sin75^\circ}g=(\sin f^\circ)/(195)\implies g\approx203.15

\frac{\sin37^\circ}h=(\sin f^\circ)/(195)\implies h\approx126.57

Don't forget to provide units for the side lengths solved for above!
