m∠A = 61º
AC / sin 52º = 49 / sin 61º

asked 07/26/20This problem refers to the figure below, which shows a diagram for a bike frame.
Given BC = 49 cm, BD = 63 cm, CD = 76 cm, ∠ABC = 52°, and ∠ACB = 67°, find the following. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)
(a) the length of the chainstay, AC
AC = _____cm
(b) ∠BCD
∠BCD = _____ °

I'm using an "oblique" formula:
β=acos((a^2+c^2-b^2)/(2ac)
In this case: acosβ(49^2+76^2-63^2)/(2*49*76)
β=59.6°; in this case >bcd.
As for side ac; asa was given.
α=52°
β=61°
γ=67°
bc=side a=49
ab= " c
ac= " b
a/sinα=b/sinβ=c/sinγ
49/.788=62.182=b/.874; b=54.3855......
PS
Would of been easier if the display was labeled correctly.
