The answer is 18.24397

Use the method SOHCAHTOA....
In this case you are using the form SOH (sin)

You already have your angle and the opposite side and you’re trying to fine the hypotenuse ..

sin(52)=18/x

then you’re going to move the sin over

18/sin(52)

and using a calculator, you should get 18.24397
