Answer: 133 cm

============================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to relabel the figure as triangle ABC.

As the instructions mention, we'll use the law of cosines to find the missing side.

  • side a = 147
  • side b = 166
  • angle C = 50 degrees

Use these facts to find side c

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2*a*b*cos(C)

c^2 = 147^2 + 166^2 - 2*147*166*cos(50)

c^2 = 17794.393497

c = sqrt(17794.393497)

c = 133.395628

c = 133
