Estimation is never an effective way to get the answer. But it's always an effective way to determine whether the answer you calculated is reasonable, or from orbit by way of left field.
If the diameter of it is 6, then its radius is half that.
Concept:
First eliminate the t from x=3t and then put it in y=t² and then graph it. As, limit of t is not restricted so t ∈ R(all real numbers)
As it is difficult to make graph here so I have solved it by hand and add all detail regarding it.

Answer:
21.8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A useful way to write the Law of Sines relation when solving for side lengths is ...
a/sin(A) = b/sin(B)
Then the solution for 'a' is found by multiplying by sin(A):
a = sin(A)(b/sin(B)) = b·sin(A)/sin(B)
__
We need to know the angle A. Its value is ...
A = 180° -75° -31.8° = 73.2°
Then the desired length is ...
a = (22 cm)sin(73.2°)/sin(75°) ≈ (22 cm)(0.9573/0.9659)
a ≈ 21.8 cm
_____
I like to use the longest side and largest angle in the equation when those are available. That is why I chose 75° and 22 cm.
