Answer

\boxed{\text{Final Answer: } P \approx 34^\circ}

Steps

Step 1 :Use the Law of Cosines to find the length of side q: q=p2+r22prcosR

Step 2 :Use the Law of Sines to find the angle P: sinPp=sinRr

Step 3 :Calculate the values: q=992+9722(99)(97)cos112162.50

Step 4 :Calculate the angle P: sinP=99sin11297P34.39

Step 5 :\boxed{\text{Final Answer: } P \approx 34^\circ}
