Let a = 5, b = 7, and C = 42. Solve the triangle. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angles to the nearest whole number. Show all work please.
Solution
a=5,b,7,C=42
using cosine law which is
c^2=a^2 + b^2 -2abcos C
c^2= 5^2 + 7^2 -2(5)(7)cos 42
c^2=74-70cos42
c=4.7
SinC/c=SinB/b
sinB=7sin42/4.7
B=85
A=180-(B+C)=53 degree
