Question

If in ∆ABC, ∠C = 105°, ∠B = 45° and a = 2, then find b

Solution

\[\text{ We know }, A + B + C = \pi\]
\[ \therefore A = \pi - \left( B + C \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow A = 180°  - \left( 45°  + 105°  \right) = 30° \]
\[\text{ Now }, \]
\[\text{ According to sine rule }, \frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{b}{sinB} . \]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{2}{\sin30°  } = \frac{b}{\sin45° } \left( \because a = 2, \angle B = {45}^°  \right)\] 
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{2}{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{b}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}\]
\[ \Rightarrow 4 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = b\]
\[ \Rightarrow b = 2\sqrt{2}\]
