Hi, there--
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "STEP I: Use the Angel Sum Theorem to find the measure of angle D.
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of the interior angles of any triangle is 180 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "[measure of angle D] + measure of angle E] + [measure of angle F] = 180 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "[measure of angle D] + 46 + 64 = 180
\n" ); document.write( "[measure of angle D] = 180 - 46 - 64 = 70
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The measure of angle D is 70 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "STEP II: Use the Law of Sines to find the length of d.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The Law of Sines says the the following rations are equivalent.
\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%28D%29%2Fd=sin%28E%29%2Fe=sin%28F%29%2Ff\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "We will use the first equivalence. Substitute the values you know and solve for d.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%28D%29%2Fd=sin%28E%29%2Fe\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%2870%29%2Fd=sin%2846%29%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Use a calculator to find values for the sine for each angle.
\n" ); document.write( "\"0.9397%2Fd=0.7193%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for d.
\n" ); document.write( "\"d=%28%280.9397%29%283%29%29%2F%280.7193%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"d=3.92+cm%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
