Answer:

  7,6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines can be used to find the length AB.

  AB/sin(C) = BC/sin(A)

A = 180° -48° -52° = 80°

  AB = BC·sin(C)/sin(A) = 12,8·sin(52°)/sin(80°)

The sine function can be used to find AD from AB.

  AD/AB = sin(48°)

  AD = AB·sin(48°) = 12,8·sin(48°)sin(52°)/sin(80°)

  AD ≈ 7,61 cm

__

The dimension of interest is ha in the attachment, the height from vertex A.
