Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
KL ║ NM ,
LM = 45
m∠M = 50°
KN ⊥ NM
NL ⊥ LM
Find: KN and KL
1. Consider triangle NLM. This is a right triangle, because NL ⊥ LM. In this triangle,
So,
Also
(angles LNM and M are complementary).
2. Consider triangle NKL. This is a right triangle, because KN ⊥ NM . In this triangle,
(alternate interior angles)
(angles KNL and KLN are complementary).
and
KL=45\tan 50^{\circ}\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 41.08\\ \\KN=45\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 34.47
