Answer 1

use sine formula
a/sin A=b/sin B
here
we have side YX , angle opposite to it is W
side YW, angle opposite to it is X
YX/sin W= YW/ sin X
W=61 degrees
X=92 degrees
YX/sin 61= YW/sin 92
YX/0.82=YW/0.99
YX=0.875 YW

Answer 2

@ash2326 how do you calc the sine values?

Answer 3

Can anyone explain this to me?
