Answer 2

Explanation:

Alright lets get started.

We have given two sides and one angle between both sides

One side is 27

Second side is 19

The angle between them is 26 degrees.

Using the cosine law

`a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc cos A`

`a^2=27^2+19^2-2*27*19*cos26`

`a^2 = 167.8373`

Taking square root on both sides

a = 12.955

To the nearest miles : a is 13 miles

Hence the distance between Michael's house and Henrietta's house is 13 miles. : Answer
