Q. In △NOP,n=300cm,p=100cm and ∠P=45∘. Find all possible values of ∠N, to the nearest degree.Answer:
Apply Law of Sines: To find the possible values of angle N, we can use the Law of Sines, which states that the ratio of the length of a side of a triangle to the sine of the angle opposite that side is the same for all sides of the triangle. The formula is sin(A)a=sin(B)b=sin(C)c, where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides, and A, B, and C are the opposite angles.
Write Law of Sines: First, let's write down the Law of Sines for our triangle NOP: sin(N)300=sin(45°)100
Solve for sin(N): Now, we can solve for sin(N):sin(N)=100300×sin(45°)
Calculate sin(45°): Calculate sin(45°), which is 2/2 or approximately 0.7071:sin(N)=100300×0.7071
Perform Multiplication and Division: Perform the multiplication and division to find sin(N):sin(N)≈300×0.7071/100sin(N)≈212.13/100sin(N)≈2.1213
