OK....I just had to reduce my screen size....sorry!!

The other angle in the triangle is 90 - 17 = 73

So using the Law of Sines we have

10/sin17 = x / sin 73

x =10 (sin 73)/(sin 17) = 32.7 = the side opposite the 73 degree angle

Now just use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypoteneuse...

Sqrt (32.7^2  + 10^2)  =  hypoteneuse

I'll leave this for you to finish......just add all the sides for the answer!!
