geerky42 (geerky42):

Looks like good job for law of sines.

geerky42 (geerky42):

\[\Large \dfrac{\sin J}j = \dfrac{\sin L}l\]

geerky42 (geerky42):

j and l is side opposite of angle J and L respectively.

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

I know that, okay, so \(\Large\frac{\sin(J)}{12}=\frac{\sin(104)}{15}\)

geerky42 (geerky42):

yeah. Now solve for J.

geerky42 (geerky42):

By isolating \(\sin J\) first, then take arcsin of both sides.

geerky42 (geerky42):

I know you can do it :)

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

that's what I'm doing right now

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

I got 50.91

geerky42 (geerky42):

Same here.

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

geerky42 (geerky42):

Sure
