The length of the side x is 63.652.

Given:

Angle C = 97 degree.

Angle A = 47 degree.

The length of the side y is, 51.2 cm.

The objective is to find the length of the side x.

Consider the third side of the triangle as z.

By law of sines,

[tex]\frac{x}{\sin A}=\frac{y}{\sin B}=\frac{z}{\sin C}[/tex]

The measure of angle B can be calculated by angle sum property of triangle.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \angle A+\angle B+\angle C=180^0 \\ 47^0+\angle B+97^0=180^0 \\ \angle B=180^0-47^0-97^0 \\ \angle B=36^0 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now the value of x can be calculated by substituting the obtained values in the first two ratios of law of sines.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{\sin47^0}=\frac{51.2}{\sin36^0} \\ \frac{x}{0.731}=\frac{51.2}{0.588} \\ x=\frac{51.2}{0.588}\cdot0.731 \\ x=63.652 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the length of the side x is 63.652.
