Question

Find the length of LM. Show your work.

Answer 1

Answer:

20

Solution,

<N=180-53-44

=83

Apply sines rule,

$\frac{lm}{sin \: 83} = \frac{14}{sin44} \\ lm = \frac{14 \: sin \: 83}{sin \: 44} \\ lm = 20$

hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..

Answer 2

Answer:

LM =20.00356825

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the law of sines

sin M        sin N  

-------- = ------------

LN             LM

We can find the measure of N since the sum of the angles of triangles is 180

L+ M+ N =180

53+ 44 + N =180

N =180 - 53-44

N =83

sin 44        sin 83

-------- = ------------

14             LM

Using cross products

LM sin 44 = 14 sin 83

LM = 14 sin 83 / sin 44

LM =20.00356825
