Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
b/sinB = a/sinA
b = asinB/sinA
b = 1000sinB/sin2
b = 2,865.37sinB
-1 < sin B < 1
-2,865.37 < b < 2,865.37 but b>0, all lengths are positive distances
0 < B < 180-15
0 < B < 165
so
0 < b < 2,865.37
the closer B is to 90 degrees the closer b is to 2,865.37
the closer B is to 0 degrees, the closer b is to 0
the closer B is to 165 degrees, the closer b is to 741.6
maximum b is when
b' = 2865.37(cosB) = 0
cosB = 0
B = 90 degrees
this all assumes you meant A = 2 degrees,
if you meant A = 2 radians, then A = about 114.6 degrees
then
b = 1000sinB/sin114.6
= about 1020sinB
B >0
B< 180-114.6
B< 65.4
max b = about 1020
min b = 0
0 < b < 1020
