There exist a similar question where b = 68 instead of 6. First, determine the measure of the third angle, angle C,
m∠c = 180 - (55° + 44°) = 81°
Let x be the side AB, that which is opposite to angle C. Through the Sine Law,
68 / sin 44° = x / sin 81°
From the equation, the value of x is equal to 96.68. Thus, the answer is letter B.
