Given:

q = 9.10, r = 18.2, Q = 30 degrees

Required: Solve triangle QRS

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the Sine rule,


(\sin Q)/(q)=(\sin R)/(r)=(\sin S)/(s)

Plug the given values.


(\sin30\degree)/(9.10)=(\sin R)/(18.2)=(\sin S)/(s)

Consider


(\sin30\degree)/(9.10)=(\sin R)/(18.2)

Solve for R.


\begin{gathered} (0.5)/(9.10)=(\sin R)/(18.2) \\ \sin R=(0.5*18.2)/(9.10) \\ =1 \\ \implies R=90\degree \end{gathered}

Now, use the fact that the sum of the interiorn angles od a r
