Answer

A=$248 cm$ B=$69.6^{\circ}$ C=$37.3^{\circ}$

Work Step by Step

Given information : A= $73.1^{\circ}$ B= 243 cm C=157 cm Now by applying the cosine rule $a^{2}=b^{2}+c^{2}- 2bc cos A$ $a^{2}=243^{2} +157^{2}- 2\times 243\times157\times cos 73.1$ = 615168.84 a=$\sqrt 615168.84 $ =248 cm Now apply the sine rule $\frac{sin A}{a} = \frac{Sin B}{b}$ sin B= $\frac{b sin A}{a}=\frac{243 sin 73.1^{\circ}}{248}$ sin B=0.9375 B=$sin^{1}0.9375$ =$69.6^{\circ}$ C= 180-(A+B) =180-(73.1+69.6) =$37.3^{\circ}$
