There are two non congruent triangles where B=55 degrees a=15 and b=13. Find the measures of the angles of the triangle with the greater perimeter. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

The side c needs to be 12.85 for the triangle to have greatest perimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

b = 13

a = 15

Angle at b: B = 55°

Let's find side c.

Using the law of cosines,we have;

b² = a² + c² - 2ac•cos(B)

13² = 15² + c² - 2•15•c•cos(55)

169 = 225 + c² - 30c•cos(55)

c² - 30c•cos(55) + 225 - 169 = 0

c² - 30c•cos(55) + 56 = 0

c² - 30c•(0.5736) + 56 = 0

c² - 30c•(0.5736) + 56 = 0

c² - 17.208c + 56 = 0

Using quadratic formula;

c = [-(-17.208) ± √((-17.208)² - (4•1•56)]/2(1)

c = [17.208 ± √(296.115 - 224)]/2

c = 8.604 ± 4.246

To have the greater perimeter, we need the larger value of c, thus we will use the positive sign and ignore the negative one ;

Thus,

c = 8.604 + 4.246 = 12.85

-7

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 18x + 74 = (x + 9)^2 - 81 + 74

= (x + 9)^2 - 7.

so q = -7.

the answer is: the length is 5/6 yards.
