Law of Sines


\displaystyle (sin∠C)/(c) = (sin∠B)/(b) = (sin∠A)/(a) \\ \\ (sin\:40°)/(5) = (sin∠C)/(7) → (7sin\:40°)/(5) = sin∠C → 0,8999026535... = sin∠C → 64,14527443...° = sin^(-1)\:0,8999026535... \\ \\ 64° ≈ m∠C

As you can see, the inverse function had to be used towards the end, or the answer would have been thrown off.

I am joyous to assist you at any time.
