Answer:

c = 730 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we just need to use the law of sines:

The ratio between a side in the triangle and its opposite angle is always the same.

So we have that:

[tex]a / sin(A) = c / sin(C)[/tex]

[tex]714 / sin(78) = c / sin(90)[/tex]

sin(78) is equal 0.9781 and sin(90) is equal 1, so we have:

[tex]714 / 0.9781 = c / 1[/tex]

[tex]c = 714 / 0.9781 = 730\ cm[/tex]
