Hey! To find the missing side and angle of the triangle, we can use the fact that the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180°.

Since we already know two angles, 46° and 34°, we can find the missing angle by subtracting the sum of the given angles from 180°. So, the missing angle would be 180° - (46° + 34°).

To find the missing side, we can use the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines. But before we do that, could you let me know which angle is opposite the missing side? It will help me determine which formula to use.
