what's the other sides? @aivantettet26

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

give me a minute :)

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

using cosine rule let's solve for c

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

with our initially given angle and with the value of b b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac(cos106.4)

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

67.75^2 = 17.38^2 + c^2 - 2(17.38)(cos106.4)c
