Question

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 \( x \).
\[ x = \] [Text Box for Input]](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fcdba5689-bc14-44c2-a025-6db7a798c6e6%2F11c9ca56-9d1c-400f-be00-1cc4f57eb500%2F2wx4qqr_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
