The correct answer is:  

Spread their influence around the globe.

Between 1815 and 1914, the British Empire expanded its territory and the victory over Napoleon left no serious international rival, apart from Russia in Central Asia. This allowed Britain to apply the Pax Britannica, and a foreign policy of splendid isolation. In addition to the formal control over its own colonies, Britain managed to effectively control the economies of many countries, even those out of the formal empire .

angle a = 40.6°

step-by-step explanation:

for any right angle triangle we know the pythagoras theorem reveals

hypotenuse² = height²+base²

by this formula we will calculate the length of hypotenuse

h² = 6²+7²

⇒ h =√36+49 = √85 = 9.22

now from the given triangle sin a = height/ hypotenuse

                                                sin a = 6/9.22 = 0.651

therefore

so angle a = 40.6°
