Do you know how to use the Cosine law?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you don't have the height yet, so the best would be to find all angles and all sides. After you find the sides do the following|dw:1384960287492:dw|knowing all the sides, and using a^2+b^2=c^2,

but you only know one side

Continuing from what I said. FIND ALL SIDES FIRST, using the LAW of COSINES. |dw:1384960533171:dw| Where two bases are going to be (b-y) and y so you would get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

After finding all sides, you can find the height. A= 42.2 degrees, B=13.6 so angle C= 180-(42.2+13.6)=124.2 |dw:1384960806517:dw| X would be your height, then
