In triangle KLM, angle LKM = 45degrees and angle LMK = 30degrees. Find the exact value of LM/KL.
AngleA = 90 degrees
AngleB = 90 degrees
What is angleC?

Anything within a certain ratio.

If you only have those three angles, then the sides have no certain length. They could be anything. Just think that AAA does not prove congruency.

It can, advanced Trig

That's what I thought. I bet you the goddamn teacher typed the question out wrong. Bah humbug.

There's no right angle!
Angle LKM (a.k.a. Angle K) is 45 degrees.
Angle KML (a.k.a. Angle M) is 30 degrees.
Angle MLK (a.k.a. Angle L) is 105 degrees.
So the line joining Angle L and Angle M is sideLM, and the line joining Angle L and Angle K is sideLK.
Does that help?
