Answer:

2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the segment BC can be obtained by using cosine law.

cos A =(b^2 + c^2 - a^2) /2bc

cos 20° = (5^2 +6^2 - a^2) /(2*5*6)

0.9396926208 = (25 + 36 - a^2) /60

0.9396926208 * 60 = 61 - a^2

56.3815572 = 61 - a^2

a^2 = 61 - 56.3815572

a^2 = 4.6184428

a = 2.14905626

a = 2.1 units

Hence, lenght of BC = 2.1 units.
