Answer:

JK = 10.524

LK = 21.065

Explanation:

all angles in a triangle add up to 180, so angle K = 42.

law of sines states that
(A)/(sin(a)) =(B)/(sin(b)) = (C)/(sin(c)), where capital letters are side lengths and lower case letters are the angles opposite their corresponding capital letter sides.

in this case:


(15)/(sin(42)) = (JK)/(sin(28)) -----> JK =
(15sin(28))/(sin(42)) = 10.524

and


(15)/(sin(42)) = (LK)/(sin(110)) -----> LK =
(15sin(110))/(sin(42)) = 21.065
