Given:

In  ΔKLM, l = 48 inches, ∠K=55° and ∠L=46°.

To find:

The length of k, to the nearest inch.

Solution:

According to Law of sine,

[tex]\dfrac{a}{\sin A}=\dfrac{b}{\sin B}=\dfrac{c}{\sin C}[/tex]

In ΔKLM, using law of sine, we get

[tex]\dfrac{k}{\sin K}=\dfrac{l}{\sin L}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{k}{\sin (55^\circ)}=\dfrac{48}{\sin (46^\circ)}[/tex]

[tex]k=\dfrac{48\times \sin (55^\circ)}{\sin (46^\circ)}[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]k=\dfrac{48\times 0.819152}{0.7193398}[/tex]

[tex]k=\dfrac{39.319296}{0.7193398}[/tex]

[tex]k=54.66025 [/tex]

Approximate the value to the nearest inch.

[tex]k\approx 55 [/tex]

Therefore, the length of k is 55 inch.

The length of k, to the nearest inch is  ∠K=55°.

Calculation of the length of K:

Since

In ΔKLM, l = 48 inches, ∠K=55° and ∠L=46°.

Now here we apply law of sine

[tex]a\div sin\A = b\div sin\ B = c\div sin\c \\\\k\div sin \ k = l\div sin\ L\\\\k\div sin\ 55 = 48\div sin\ 66[/tex]

k = 54.66

k = 55 degrees

hence, The length of k, to the nearest inch is  ∠K=55°.
