∠C=60−20=40°  ∠A=180−20−60=100°  say AB=a  ((AF)/(sin 20))=((BF)/(sin 100))=((AB)/(sin 60))=((2a)/( (√3)))  ⇒AF=((2sin 20)/( (√3)))a  ⇒BF=((2sin 100)/( (√3)))a  AF+BF=(sin 20+sin 100)((2a)/( (√3)))=12  ⇒a=AB=((6(√3))/(sin 20+sin 100))  ((BC)/(sin 100))=((AB)/(sin 40))  ⇒BC=((6(√3) sin 100)/(sin 40(sin 20+sin 100)))      =((6(√3))/(sin 40(2sin 10+1)))=12
