Pythagoras' theorem only works with right triangles. 2) Law of Cosine because there is a trapped angle (an angle between two sides). The Sine rule would not work for this as there isn't a pair of side and angle opposite one another. 3) a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc * cosASubstitute the values in:a^2 = 440^2 + 255^2 - 2(440)(255) * cos(57)a^2 = 136408.0005Square root it:a = 369.334CB = 3694) a/sinA = b/sinBAs we are working out an angle, it would be this way:sinA/a = sinB/bSubstitute the values in:sin(57)/369 = sinB/255sinB = sin(57)/369 x 255sinB = 0.5795690917B = 35.42024It would be 35 degrees5) Angles in a triangle total to 180 degrees180 - (35 + 57) = 88It would be 88 degrees✽➶ Hope This Helps You!➶ Good Luck (:➶ Have A Great Day ^-^↬ ʜᴀɴɴᴀʜ ♡
