Answer:

41.1

Explanation:

A triangle solver can do this nicely. b ≈ 41.1

__

You can use the law of cosines for the purpose.

b² = a² +c² -2ac·cos(B)

b² = 120² +110² -2(120)(110)·cos(20°) ≈ 1692.1148

b ≈ √1692.1148 ≈ 41.13532

The missing side is b ≈ 41.1 units.

Find the missing side or angle. Round to the nearest tenth. 7 B = 20° a=120 c=110 b-example-1
