Answer

\(\boxed{h \approx 714.2\,\text{cm}}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Given a triangle FGH with side g=910 cm, angle G=98°, and angle H=51°. We need to find the length of side h using the Law of Sines.

Step 2 :Using the Law of Sines, we have: \(\frac{h}{\sin{H}} = \frac{g}{\sin{G}}\)

Step 3 :Solving for h, we get: \(h = g \cdot \frac{\sin{H}}{\sin{G}}\)

Step 4 :Substituting the given values, we have: \(h = 910 \cdot \frac{\sin{51°}}{\sin{98°}}\)

Step 5 :Calculating the value of h, we get: \(h \approx 714.2\,\text{cm}\)

Step 6 :\(\boxed{h \approx 714.2\,\text{cm}}\)
