Answer:

b is about 25.5, c is about 18.7

Explanation:

Using the law of sines, you can find the measure of side b with the following equation:


(\sin 48)/(19)=(\sin 85)/(b)


b\approx 25.5

Similarly, for c, you can do the following:


(\sin 48)/(19)=(\sin 47)/(c)


c\approx 18.7

Hope this helps!
