Answer:
126.6
Option A is the right option.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of angles in triangle= 180°
[tex]85 + 53 + m < a = 180 \\ or \: 138 + m < a = 180 \\ or \:m < a = 180 - 138 \\ m < a = 42[/tex]
Applying sine rule:
[tex] \frac{sin \: a \: }{a} = \frac{sin \: b}{b} = \frac{sin \: c}{c} \\ \frac{sin \: b}{b} = \frac{sin \: c}{c} \\ \frac{sin \: (85)}{b} = \frac{sin(42)}{85} \\ 85 \: sin \: (85) = \: b \: sin \: (42) \\ b = \frac{85 \: sin \: (85)}{sin \: 42} \\ ac = 126.6[/tex]
Hope this helps....
Good luck on your assignment...
