Answer:

6.5

Explanation:

\text{A.S.A.}\rightarrow \text{Law of Sines}

A.S.A.→Law of Sines

\frac{a}{\sin A}=\frac{b}{\sin B}

sinA

a

=

sinB

b

From reference sheet.

\text{Find other angle:}

Find other angle:

\angle T=180-71-36=73^{\circ}

∠T=180−71−36=73

T

U

V

t = 6.6

u = ?

71°

36°

73°

\frac{u}{\sin 71}=\frac{6.6}{\sin 73}

sin71

u

=

sin73

6.6

Plug in. Opposite sides go together.

u=\frac{6.6\sin 71}{\sin 73} \approx 6.526 \approx 6.5

u=

sin73

6.6sin71

≈6.526≈6.5

Solve for the side and evaluate.
