Question

How do you solve the right triangle given a = 26, c = 42, A = 33°?

Answer 1

assuming that by solve you mean find the unknown sides and angles then `b=35.22, theta=57^@`

Explanation:

The unknown side b

`cos(33^@)=b/42`

`b=42xxcos(33^@)=35.22`

The unknown angle `theta`

`theta=180^@-90^@-33^@=57^@`

Hope it helps :)
