Answer provided by our tutors

Draw a triangle and fill in your given information.

Angles on the inside equal 180 degrees.

This tells us the missing angle is 88 degrees.

With this information we can create a ratio.

68/15 = 88/x

x = 19.41

note that the numerators are degrees and the denominators are lengths. you must stay consistent
