My dorm agreed to use "4" when we didn't know the answer.

Is the 104.625 across from the 17 or 73 degree angle?

You can set it up as a ratio problem and solve it that way. I can’t remember sines and tangents and cotangents.

One side is 340, the other is 360

When I entered Navy flight training, we had a math entrance exam. There were trig questions. Luckily, they drew everything to scale so I could use plane geometry.

Sine of angle = opposite over hypotenuse. Cosine = adjacent over hypotenuse

Tagent = opposite over adjacent. This one in particular will be useful.

Rule of sines. Hypotenuse = 104.625 / sine of opposite angle.

One side is 100.0534 (opposite 73 degrees)...the other is 30.5894 (opposite 17 degrees.
Use the law of sines OR strictly by proportion.

Is 104.625 the long or the short side. Is it is the long side then c(hyp) = 104.625/cos17 . If 104.625 is the short side the c = 104.625/sin17. There is also 3 more ways to quickly figure this problem.

Your numbers are wrong. All triangles have a total of 180 degrees on the internal angle. No more, no less.

The numbers you offer are ambiguous.
There are two solutions unless you identify specifically which angle is opposite the given side.
To: jsh3180
Draw the picture...base is longer or height (104.625) is longer?? We need the position of the angles.

Your problem state that a line intersects an angle. How is this possible?

Oops. Sorry.
Sine(x) = length opposite/length hypotenuse
Cosine(x)= length adjacent/ length hypotenuse
Tan(x) = Length opposite/ length adjacent
From these three you can calculate all the other sides and angles.
