Answer:
X = 89.92° or 90.08°
Step-by-step explanation:
The law of sines can be used to find the value of angle X:
sin(X)/26 = sin(67.38°)/24
sin(X) = (26/24)sin(67.38°) ≈ 0.99999901787
There are two values of X that have this sine:
X = arcsin(0.99999901787) ≈ 89.92°
X = 180° -arcsin(0.99999901787) ≈ 90.08°
There are two solutions: X = 89.92° or 90.08°.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
We suspect that the angle is supposed to be considered to be 90°. However, the given angle is reported to 2 decimal places, so we figure the requested angle should also be reported to 2 decimal places.
The lengths of the short side that correspond to the above angles are 10.03 and 9.97 units. If the short side were considered to be 10 units, the triangle would be a right triangle, and the larger acute angle would be ...
arcsin(24/26) ≈ 67.38014° . . . . rounds to 67.38°
This points up the difficulty of trying to use the Law of Sines on a triangle that is actually a right triangle.
Answer is 10 and 170, complementary angles are 90°, while supplementary angles are 180 in total, if angle A is 80 then you subtract 90 by 80 and you get 10, so that is angle B, So then you are asked what is angle C. Which is part of the supplementary angle so you take the 10° that you got from B and then you subtract 180 by the 10, And thats how you get 170 and that's how you know that C is 170 (hope this explanation helps)
the answer would be -8<x<2
