Best Answer

Use the cosine rule: a2 = b2+c2-2bc*cos A

BC2 = AB2+AC2-2*AB*AC*cos A

BC2 = 32+52-2*3*5*cos 57

BC2 = 17.66082895

BC = 4.20247887 cm in length

What is the measure of angle A in triangle ABC if B equals 15 degrees C equals 65 degrees and side a equals 19?

If you are really talking about a closed triangle ABC, then the length of side "a" (given as 19) does not matter in the calculation. Sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. Angle B and C add up to 15 + 65 = 80 degrees. Hence angle A is (180 - 80) = 100 degrees
