Answer: Using trigonometry, we can find the length of side AC. Since we know the length of side BC and one angle, we can use the tangent function:

tan(70) = AC/6

Multiplying both sides by 6, we get:

AC = 6 * tan(70)

Using a calculator, we get:

AC ≈ 19.22

Rounding to the nearest hundredth, we get:

AC ≈ 19.22 units.
