Solvetriangle ABC if a = 15, c = 18, and the measure of angle C= 68°.??
Can someone help me with this three problem please thanks i appriciate it :)

The law of sines states:
sin(α) / A = sin(β) / B = sin(γ) / C
Where A is the length of the side opposite angle α, etc.
For the first problem:
sin(X) / x = sin(Z) / z
Solve for Z:
sin(Z) = zsin(X) / x
Z = arcsin(zsin(X) / x)
Z = arcsin[(10)sin(96°) / 48]
Z ≈ 11.96°
For the second problem:
sin(C) / c = sin(B) / b
sin(C) = csin(B) / b
C = arcsin(csin(B) / b)
C = arcsin[(17)sin(47°) / 13]
C ≈ 73.02°
For the third problem:
sin(A) / a = sin(C) / c
sin(A) = asin(C) / c
A = arcsin(asin(C) / c)
A = arcsin[(15)sin(68°) / 18)]
A ≈ 50.59°
You can find angle B by summing all the angles:
50.59° + B + 68° = 180°
B ≈ 61.41°
And finally, find side b using the law of sines again:
sin(B) / b = sin(C) / c
b = csin(B) / sin(C)
b = (18)sin(61.41°) / sin(68°)
b ≈ 17.05
sin(α) / A = sin(β) / B = sin(γ) / C
Where A is the length of the side opposite angle α, etc.
For the first problem:
sin(X) / x = sin(Z) / z
Solve for Z:
sin(Z) = zsin(X) / x
Z = arcsin(zsin(X) / x)

Z ≈ 11.96°

sin(C) / c = sin(B) / b

A ≈ 50.59°
You can find angle B by summing all the angles:
50.59° + B + 68° = 180°
B ≈ 61.41°
And finally, find side b using the law of sines again:
sin(B) / b = sin(C) / c
b = csin(B) / sin(C)
b = (18)sin(61.41°) / sin(68°)
b ≈ 17.05
