Trig- asap! use either the law of cosines or the law of sines to find the measure of angle c

C = 81.6 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for law of sines

sin A       sin B          sin C

 =  =

a                  b               c

Looking at the diagram,  we know A = 54, b = 7.4 and c = 15.8

not enough to use the law of sines

We will need to use the law of cosines

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2ac cos A

Using the law of cosines, we can calculate the length of a

a^2 = 7.4^2 + 15.8^ -2*7.4*15.8 cos 54

a^2 = 54.6+249.64-233.84cos54

a^2 =166.7922966

a = 12.921

Now we can use the law of sines to find C

sin 54      sin C

 =  

12.921           15.8

Using cross products

15.8 * sin 54 = 12.921 * sin C

Divide each side by 12.921

15.8 /12.921 * sin 54  = sin C

Take the arcsin of each side

arcsin (15.8 /12.921 * sin 54)  = arcsin (sin C)

arcsin (15.8 /12.921 * sin 54)  = C

C = 81.6 degrees

when rotating a figure 180 degrees, imagine that you are able to take the figure and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise around a center point. to rotate a figure 180 degrees, you will need to apply the rule (x, y) → (-x, -y). start by using a coordinate grid with coordinates for each vertex of the figure. the center point of the coordinate grid is located at (0, 0), which is what you will rotate the figure around. write down the original coordinates of the shape you are going to rotate. then, apply the rule. for example, coordinate (1, 2) becomes (-1, -2). another example would be, coordinate (-4, -2) becoming (4, 2). after you change each original coordinate to the rotated coordinate, you will draw your new figure.
