Answer:

KL=45\tan 50^{\circ}\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 41.08\\ \\KN=45\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 34.47

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,

LM = 45

m∠M = 50°

So,

\tan \angle M=\dfrac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}=\dfrac{NL}{LM}=\dfrac{NL}{45}\\ \\NL=45\tan 50^{\circ}

Also

m\angle LNM=90^{\circ}-50^{\circ}=40^{\circ} (angles LNM and M are complementary).

2. Consider triangle NKL. This is a right triangle, because KN ⊥ NM . In this triangle,

NL=45\tan 50^{\circ}

m\angle KLN=m\angle LNM=40^{\circ} (alternate interior angles)

m\angle KNL=90^{\circ}-40^{\circ}=50^{\circ} (angles KNL and KLN are complementary).

So,

\sin \angle KNL=\dfrac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}=\dfrac{KL}{LN}=\dfrac{KL}{45\tan 50^{\circ}}\\ \\KL=45\tan 50^{\circ}\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 41.08

and

\cos \angle KNL=\dfrac{\text{adjacent leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}=\dfrac{KN}{LN}=\dfrac{KN}{45\tan 50^{\circ}}\\ \\KN=45\tan 50^{\circ}\cos 50^{\circ}=45\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 34.47

Rewrite 8x - 7 as the product of two factors
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

factors are any group of number or expressions which, when multiplied, produce another number or expression.

Basic example:  4 can be broken into 2 factors---2 and 2.  2 times 2 = 4

Example using an unknown:

2X + 6 = 2 * (X + 3)

In the given problem, there is no whole-number common factor.  A normal convention would be to factor based on the unknown term----thus 8X is factored into 8 and X.

So:  8X + 7 = 8 ( X + 7/8 )

The following would also be correct:

8X + 7 = 4 ( 2X + 7/4 )

Factor this expression completely and then place the factors in the proper location on the grid. 36y2 - 1
Tema [17]
I'm assuming that y2 means y^2 or y squared. In that case, your factors will be (6y+1) and (6y-1).
