Answer to Problem 30E
The length of
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The figure,
Formula used:
Sum of interior angles of any triangle is
According to law of sines, the lengths of the sides of the triangle are proportional to the sines of the corresponding opposite angles. In any triangle,
Calculation:
Consider the given figure,
In the given figure,
Recall that according to law of sines, the lengths of the sides of the triangle are proportional to the sines of the corresponding opposite angles. In any triangle,
So, the value of
So, the complete
Recall that the sum of interior angles of any triangle is
So,
Now, the value of
Thus, the length of
