Answer:

1173 in

Explanation:

The measure of angle O is ...

O = 180° -N -P = 180° -32° -97° = 51°

The law of sines tells you ...

o/sin(O) = n/sin(N)

o = n·sin(O)/sin(N) = (800 in)·sin(51°)/sin(32°)

o ≈ 1173 in

In ΔNOP, n = 800 inches, ∠P=97° and ∠N=32°. Find the length of o, to the nearest inch-example-1
