Question
Assume Za is opposite side a, ZB is opposite side b, and Zy is opposite side c.
Solve triangle ABC if ZA = = 32.6°, b = 12.3 in, and c = 14.3 in.
Using the Law of Cosines,
in.
Your answer should accurate to 2 decimal places.
Using the Law of Cosines again,
COSZB = cos B 2
Your answer should accurate to 5 decimal places.
Thus, B 2
Your answer should accurate to 2 decimal places.
cosZC =
= cos y
Your answer should accurate to 5 decimal places.
Thus, y
Your answer should accurate to 2 decimal places.
Check by seeing if the total of the three angles is 180°.
