Mass‐radius relationship for a Roche lobe–filling companion of XTE J1814−338 (solid curve) and low‐mass main‐sequence stars (dashed curve), with corresponding inclination angles indicated. The dashed curve is based on the analytic mass‐radius function presented in Tout et al. (1996). The intersection of the curves suggests a companion mass of ≈0.5 M.
