Answer:


C=25^(\circ),\\a\approx 10.72,\\b\approx 11.83

Explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. Thus, angle C must be
180-90-65=25^(\circ).

In any triangle, the Law of Sines is given by
(\sin A)/(a)=(\sin B)/(b)=(\sin C)/(c).

Therefore, we have:


(\sin 90^(\circ))/(b)=(\sin 25^(\circ))/(5),\\\\b=(5\sin90^(\circ))/(\sin 25^(\circ))=11.8310079158\approx \boxed{11.83}


(a)/(\sin 65^(\circ))=(5)/(\sin25^(\circ)),\\a=(5\sin 65^(\circ))/(\sin25^(\circ))=10.7225346025\approx \boxed{10.72}
