To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have:

 Sinα=opposite/hypotenuse

 α=62°
 opposite=x
 hypotenuse=15 ft

 2. When you substitute the values into  Sinα=opposite/hypotenuse, you obtain:

 Sinα=opposite/hypotenuse
 Sin(62°)=x/15

 3. You must clear "x", as below:

 x=(15)(Sin(62°))
 x=13.24 ft

 The answer is. 13.24 ft

Use the law of cosines to find a: a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc (cos(A))

So to use the given numbers you get: a^2=27^2+45^2-2(27)(45)(cos(53))

Which would come out to equal about 35.94

so a=35.9
