1. **Problem:** Solve triangle $\triangle ABC$ given $\angle A = 38^\circ$, $\angle B = 90^\circ$, and side $c = 12.4$ cm. 2. **Step 1: Find $\angle C$** Since the sum of angles in a triangle is $180^\circ$, $$\angle C = 180^\circ - \angle A - \angle B = 180^\circ - 38^\circ - 90^\circ = 52^\circ.$$ 3. **Step 2: Use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometric ratios** Since $\angle B$ is $90^\circ$, side $c$ is the hypotenuse. 4. **Step 3: Find side $a$ using sine:** $$a = c \sin(\angle A) = 12.4 \times \sin(38^\circ).$$ Calculate $\sin(38^\circ) \approx 0.6157$, $$a = 12.4 \times 0.6157 = 7.63 \text{ cm}.$$ 5. **Step 4: Find side $b$ using cosine:** $$b = c \cos(\angle A) = 12.4 \times \cos(38^\circ).$$ Calculate $\cos(38^\circ) \approx 0.7880$, $$b = 12.4 \times 0.7880 = 9.77 \text{ cm}.$$ 6. **Step 5: Summary of results:** $$\angle C = 52^\circ, \quad a = 7.63 \text{ cm}, \quad b = 9.77 \text{ cm}, \quad c = 12.4 \text{ cm}.$$ 7. **Note:** The problem's given values $b=15.7$ m and $a=9.7$ m do not match the triangle with $c=12.4$ cm and angles $38^\circ$ and $90^\circ$. The correct values based on $c=12.4$ cm are as above.
