If two sides of a triangle and the included angle are known, you can use the law of cosines to find the length of the third side.

OpenStudy (ranga):

Law of Cosines: c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcos(C) Here it is: AB^2 = OA^2 + OB^2 - 2(OA)(OB)cos(AOB) = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is AOB supposed to be? I'm confused.

OpenStudy (ranga):

AOB is the angle. 45 degrees.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is 9 the answer?

OpenStudy (ranga):

I am getting 9.18 that can be rounded up to 9.2 or down to 9 depending on how many decimal places they want.
