Answer: EF = 6.5 FG = 5.0

Explanation:

Since this is not a right triangle, you must use Law of Sin or Law of Cos

They have given enough info for law of sin :
(a)/(sin A) =(b)/(sinB)

The side of the triangle is related to the angle across from it.


(a)/(sin A) =(b)/(sinB) >formula


(FG)/(sin E) =(EG)/(sinF) >equation, substitute


(FG)/(sin 39) =(7.9)/(sin86) >multiply both sides by sin 39


FG =(7.9)/(sin86)sin39 >plug in calc

FG = 5.0

<G = 180 - 86 - 39 >triangle rule

<G = 55


(a)/(sin A) =(b)/(sinB) >formula


(EF)/(sin G) =(EG)/(sinF) >equation, substitute


(EF)/(sin 55) =(7.9)/(sin86) >multiply both sides by sin 55


EF =(7.9)/(sin86)sin55 >plug in calc

EF = 6.5
