\[\cos(A)=\frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}\] is how to get the cosine of the angle, then take the arc cosine to get the angle itself
OpenStudy (misty1212):
where \(a\) is the side opposite angle \(A\)
OpenStudy (misty1212):
you need a calculator, and to plug the numbers in to the right place
need help with that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (misty1212):
you want angle T, and the side opposite angle T has length 8.5

so it is
\[\cos(T)=\frac{13^2+11^2-8.5^2}{2\times 11\times 13}\]
OpenStudy (misty1212):
put that in the calcualtor, then take the arc cosine of the result
OpenStudy (misty1212):
or you can use wolfram
OpenStudy (misty1212):
