Answer:

MC is 10 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for the triangle ΔABC are;

m∠B = 90°

m∠C = 15°

M ∈ BC

m∠BAM = 60°

AM = 10 in.

From the given information, ΔABC is drawn using Microsoft Visio, from which we have ΔACM

m∠CAM = 75° - 60° = 15° (By angle addition postulate)

m∠CAM = 15° = m∠C, therefore, ΔACM is an isosceles triangle with base angles, m∠CAM and m∠C each equal to 15°

AM = 10 in. = MC, by definition of isosceles triangle

∴ MC = 10 in.
