Explanation:

1. Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for side KM:

  • 16^2+KM^2=34^2
  • 256+KM^2=1156
  • KM^2=900
  • KM=30

2. Cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse, so cosine of M would be KM/34, or 30/34

3. Tangent is opposite over adjacent, so tangent of L will be KM/16, or 30/16

4. Sine is opposite over hypotenuse, so sine of M will be 16/34

5. KM=30, solved for in step 1.

hope this helps!!
