We are given the following triangle:

We will determine the sides and angles of the triangle.

To determine the value o side f we will use the cosine law, which is the following:


f^2=e^2+d^2-2(e)(d)cosF

Now, we plug in the values:


f^2=(9.96)^2+(5.6)^2-2(9.96)(5.6)cos(109.1)

Solving the operations:


f^2=203.7

Now, we take the square root to both sides:


\begin{gathered} f=√(203.7) \\ f=14.3 \end{gathered}

Therefore, side "f" is 14.3.

Now, we will determine angle D using the sine law:


(sinD)/(d)=(sinF)/(f)

Now, we multiply both sides by "d":


sinD=(sinF)/(f)d

Now, we substitute the values:


sinD=(sin(109.1))/(14.3)(5.6)

Solving the operation:


sinD=0.3

Now, w take the inverse function of the sine:


D=sin^(-1)(0.3)

Solving the operations:


D=17.2

Therefore, angle D is 17.2°.

To determine angle E we will us the fact that the sum of the interiosr angles of a triangle adds p to 180:


F+D+E=180

Substitting the values:


109.1+17.2+E=180

Adding the values:


126.3+E=180

Now, we subtract 126.3 from both sides:


\begin{gathered} E=180-126.3 \\ E=53.7 \end{gathered}

Therefre, angle E is 53.7°

Solve the triangles with the given parts. 25) d = 5.60, € = 9.96, F = 109.1° Round-example-1
