triangle PQR with side p across from angle P, side q across from angle Q, and side r across from angle RIf ∠P and ∠R are given, as well as the value of p, then explain whether the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines should be used to solve for r.

in this problem we have that


(r)/(sinR)=(p)/(sinP)

therefore

The answer is

Law of Sines, two angles and an opposite side are known
