Use law of cosines

  • c²=a²+b²-2abcosC
  • c²=14²+8²-2(14)(8)cos80
  • c²=196+64-244(0.173)
  • c²=221.1
  • c=14.87

Error at line 2

Answer:

B) Line 2

using the formula:


\sf c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2abcos(C)


\sf c^2 = 14^2 + 8^2 -2(14)(8)cos(80)


\sf c^2 = 196 + 64 -244 *0.173


\sf c^2 = 221.1


\sf √(c) = √(221.1)


\sf c = 14.87
