Part 1) To find the measure of ∠A in ∆ABC, use

we know that

In the triangle ABC

Applying the law of sines


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

in this problem we have


(a)/(sin\ A)=(b)/(sin\ theta)\\ \\a*sin\ theta=b*sin\ A\\ \\ sin\ A=(a*sin\ theta)/(b) \\ \\ A=arc\ sin ((a*sin\ theta)/(b))

therefore

the answer Part 1) is

Law of Sines

Part 2) To find the length of side HI in ∆HIG, use

we know that

In the triangle HIG

Applying the law of cosines


g^(2)=h^(2)+i^(2)-2*h*i*cos\ G

In this problem we have

g=HI

G=angle Beta

substitute


HI^(2)=h^(2)+i^(2)-2*h*i*cos\ Beta


HI=\sqrt{h^(2)+i^(2)-2*h*i*cos\ Beta}

therefore

the answer Part 2) is

Law of Cosines
