Section 2.4 Cosine Law © Copyright all rights reserved to Homework depot: www.BCMath.ca

I) What is the Cosine Law The Cosine Law is for solving triangles that are NOT R.T. You could only use the Cosine Law when you have: 2 sides and the angle in between All 3 sides and need to find the angles Finding side “a” or angle A Finding side “b” or angle B Finding side “c” or angle C © Copyright all rights reserved to Homework depot: www.BCMath.ca

EX: FIND THE VALUE OF THE MISSING SIDE “X” Indicate which side you want to find Indicate which side you want to find Plug the values into your formula Plug the values into your formula © Copyright all rights reserved to Homework depot: www.BCMath.ca

II) FINDING ANGLES WITH THE COSINE LAW When finding angles, isolate the cosine function first Then use inverse cosine to find the angle The side opposite of the angle must be on the left of the equation Indicate which side you want to find Plug the values into your formula © Copyright all rights reserved to Homework depot: www.BCMath.ca

Practice: Find the missing angle Indicate which side you want to find Plug the values into your formula © Copyright all rights reserved to Homework depot: www.BCMath.ca

Practice: FIND THE AREA OF THE TRIANGLE Find one of the angles Use the angle to find the height of the triangle © Copyright all rights reserved to Homework depot: www.BCMath.ca
