In ΔLMN, the measure of ∠N=90°, the measure of ∠M=70°, and NL = 74 feet. Find the length of MN to the nearest tenth of a foot.
1 answer:
Answer:26.9 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
SOH-CAH-TOA
\tan M = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}=\frac{74}{x}
tanM=
adjacent
opposite
=
x
74
\tan 70=\frac{74}{x}
tan70=
x
74
x\tan 70=74
xtan70=74
Cross multiply.
\frac{x\tan 70}{\tan 70}=\frac{74}{\tan 70}
tan70
xtan70
=
tan70
74
Divide each side by tan 70.
x=\frac{74}{\tan 70}=26.9338\approx 26.9\text{ feet}
x=
tan70
74
=26.9338≈26.9 feet
Type into calculator and roundto the nearest tenth of a foot.
