Answer:

[tex]c=11.8\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula of law of cosines is equal to

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2-2(a)(b)cos(C)[/tex]

where

a, b and c are sides. C is the angle opposite side c

In this problem we have

[tex]a=3\ units\\b=10\ units[/tex]

[tex]C=120^o[/tex]

substitute the given values

[tex]c^2=3^2+10^2-2(3)(10)cos(120^o)[/tex]

[tex]c^2=109-(60)cos(120^o)[/tex]

[tex]c^2=109-(60)(-0.5))[/tex]

[tex]c^2=109+30[/tex]

[tex]c^2=139[/tex]

[tex]c=11.8\ units[/tex]
