you will first need cosine law,
plug in the given values in
\(\large a^2 = b^2+c^2-2bc\cos A\)
and you'll get a :)

omg no wonder lol. okay let me see and can u check my answer?
hartnn (hartnn):
sure!
OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am getting...52.833
let me re-calculate.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay
hartnn (hartnn):
yup, still getting same. a = 52.833
just using calculator...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
can you show me how you set it up with the numbers substituted?
hartnn (hartnn):
\(\large a^2 = 59^2+10^2-2*10*59\cos 48\)

omg you are right. i accidently put cos 59 instead of 48
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay now to find the angles
hartnn (hartnn):
ohh..k
hartnn (hartnn):
now you can use sine law

okay and can you check to see if i got the sine law correct?
hartnn (hartnn):
ofcourse :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay so for angle B I got 56.139?
hartnn (hartnn):
yup correct :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so now i add 56.1 + 48 and subtract that with 180 to get angle C?
