Answer:

B= 44.9506°

Explanation:

WE apply sine angle formula


(a)/(sin(A)) =(b)/(sin(B))=(c)/(sin(C))

Given angle C = 51, c= 11 and b = 10


(b)/(sin(B))=(c)/(sin(C))

Plug in the values


(10)/(sin(B))=(11)/(sin(51))

Cross multiply it

10 * sin(51) = 11* sin(B)

7.771459615 = 11 sin(B)

Now divide by 11 on both sides

0.706496328 = sin(B)

Now
B = sin^(-1) (0.706496328)

B= 44.9506°
