we know that

Applying the law of sines

b/sin B=c/sin C-------> solve for sin C

sin C=(c/b)*sin B-----> sin C=(36/19)*sin 36

sin C=1.1137-------> the value of the sines can not be greater than 1

The side lengths and angle given cannot be used to create a triangle

therefore


with the given values ​​there is no solution to form some triangle
