Use the sine rule,
c%2Fsin%28C%29=a%2Fsin%28A%29
12.8%2Fsin%2824.6%29=30.7%2Fsin%28A%29
sin%28A%29=0.9984
highlight%28A=86.78%29
Then
A%2BB%2BC=180
86.78%2BB%2B24.6=180
highlight%28B=68.62%29degrees
Then using the law of sines again,
c%2Fsin%28C%29=b%2Fsin%28B%29
12.8%2Fsin%2824.6%29=b%2Fsin%2868.62%29
highlight%28b=28.6%29
