<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
AC = 10sin(40°)
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The diagram representing the question is shown in the attached image
Since the given triangle is a right-angled triangle, we can apply the special trig functions
<u>These functions are as follows:</u>
sin(θ) = opposite / hypotenuse
cos(θ) = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan(θ) = opposite / adjacent
<u>Now, in the given diagram:</u>
θ = 40°
AC is the side opposite to θ
AB = 10 in is the hypotenuse
<u>Based on these givens</u>, we will use the sin(θ) function
<u>Therefore:</u>
