Find the indicated angle 0. (Use either the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines, as appropriate. Assume a = 120 and c = 136. Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Base on the given data, the triangle is shown below.

Apply law of sine to this triangle implies,


\sin \theta=(a)/(c)

Given that, a=120 and c=136. Thefore, the given equation becomes,


\begin{gathered} \sin \theta=(120)/(136) \\ \sin \theta=0.88 \end{gathered}

Take the inverse to find the the measure of indicated angle.


\begin{gathered} \theta=\sin ^(-1)0.88 \\ \theta=61.64 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the angle is 61.64 degree.

Find the indicated angle 0. (Use either the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines, as-example-1
