Solve the triangle A 224 b 145 c 354 What is the degree m
Solve the triangle. A = 22.4 b = 14.5 c = 35.4 What is the degree measure of angle A? (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a decimal. Round to the nearest tenth if needed.) What is the degree measure of angle B? (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a decimal. Round to the nearest tenth if needed.) What is the degree measure of angle C? (Simplify your answer Type an integer or a decimal. Round to the nearest tenth if needed.) Enter your answer in each of the answer boxes.
Solution
a=22.4,b=14.5,c=35.4
We have to use cosine law here
which is cos A= (b2+c2-a2)/2bc
cos A= (14.52+35.42-22.42)/2(14.5)(35.4)
cos A= 961.65/ 1026.6
A= 20.5 degree
cos B=(a2+c2-b2)/2ac=(22.42+35.42-14.52)/2(22.4)(35.4)= 1544.67/ 1585.92
cos B= 1544.67/1585.92
B=13.1 degree
C= 180-(A+B)= 146.4 degree
