Answer:

no possible answers

Explanation:

V

W

X

w = 35

x = 78

48°

\frac{\sin A}{a}=\frac{\sin B}{b}

a

sinA

=

b

sinB

From the reference sheet (reciprocal version).

\frac{\sin X}{78}=\frac{\sin 48}{35}

78

sinX

=

35

sin48

Plug in values.

\sin X=\frac{78\sin 48}{35}\approx 1.6561513

sinX=

35

78sin48

≈1.6561513

Evaluate.

X=\sin^{-1}(1.6561513)= \text{ERROR}

X=sin

−1

(1.6561513)=ERROR

Sine cannot be greater than 1.

\text{No Possible Triangles}
