Answer:

<B = 32°

c = 9.43

Explanation:

To find the measure of <B, add up the measures of the two angles that you know and subtract from 180°.

58° + 90° = 148°

180° - 148° = 32°

The measure of <B is 32°.

To find the length of side c, use the Pythagorean Theorem.

a² + b² = c²

5² + 8² = c²

25 + 64 = c²

89 = c²

c = √89

c = 9.433981132 ⇒ 9.43 (rounded to two decimal places)

The length of side c = 9.43.

Hope that helps.
