Answer:

x = 109.349

x = 110 (to the nearest tenth)

Explanation:

We can solve for "x" using the sine formula.

Sine formula is expressed as:

sinA / a = sinB/b = sinC/c

Where A, B and C are the values of the given angles

a, b, and c are the values of the corresponding length of the sides to each angles of the triangle.

Let's proceed to applying the sine formula.

sin33 / 59.2 = sin73/ x

Let's cross Multiply and solve for "x"

x * sin33° = 59.2 * sin73°

(Punch your calculator)

sin 33° = 0.545

sin 73° = 0.956

Therefore: let's substitute the value of sin33° and sin73°

x * 0.545 = 59.2 * 0.956

x = 59.595 / 0.545

x = 109.349

x = 110 (to the nearest tenth)
