To find the length of side \( c \), we can use the Law of Sines, which states:
\[
\frac{a}{\sin(A)} = \frac{c}{\sin(C)}
\]
However, we need at least one more angle or a way to find angle \( C \) to proceed with the calculations. Without loss of generality, let’s assume we have angle \( B \), or we can infer that angle \( C \) is supplementary.
Since angle \( C \) is not given, I’ll walk you through the process assuming you want to calculate \( c \) without angle \( C \). We can express the relationship between the sides and angles in a different manner or identify that more information is needed.
If you happen to know either angle \( B \) or angle \( C \), plug that into the calculations and we'll determine side \( c \) accordingly.
In case you can provide me with another angle, I would be happy to help you find the length of side \( c \)!
