Question 1100634: A farmer is planning to fence off her triangler garden. She measures angle 1 to be 79°, and angle 2 to be 53°. The distance between angle 1 and angle 3 is 57 feet. The distance between angle 2 and angle 3 is 70feet. How much fencing does she need to buy. Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not precisely what you mean.
The side length OPPOSITE of angle 2 is 57 feet; and the side length OPPOSITE angle 1 is 70 feet.

Now what you really need to find is the side length opposite of angle number 3, for which you can now use Law Of Cosines. Call this length, x.
