**Click on the graph to view a larger graph**

Use the Law of Sines to find the indicated side \( x \) given in the graph.

![Triangle Diagram](graph)

The triangle diagram shows a triangle labeled \( \triangle ABC \):

- Angle \( \angle BAC = 52^\circ \)
- Angle \( \angle ABC = 70^\circ \)
- Side \( AB = 26.7 \)
- Side \( AC = x \)

**Calculation**

Using the Law of Sines: 

\[
\frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C}
\]

Where:
- \( a = x \)
- \( \angle A = 52^\circ \)
- \( b = 26.7 \)
- \( \angle B = 70^\circ \)

Plug in the known values to solve for \( x \):

\[
\frac{x}{\sin 70^\circ} = \frac{26.7}{\sin 52^\circ}
\]

Solve this equation to find \( x \).
