Answer:

There is no possible triangles

Explanation:

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

a

sinA

=

b

sinB

From the reference sheet (reciprocal version).

\frac{\sin O}{58}=\frac{\sin 52}{13}

58

sinO

=

13

sin52

Plug in values.

\sin O=\frac{58\sin 52}{13}\approx 3.5157403

sinO=

13

58sin52

≈3.5157403O=\sin^{-1}(3.5157403)= \text{ERROR}

O=sin

−1

(3.5157403)=ERROR

Sine cannot be greater than 1.
