Have you learnt cosine theorem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

After this I have some more questions do you have an email if you can give it to me so I could ask the questions I need help with thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

With 3 sides given, cosine theorem help us computes the angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Obtuse angles means that c^2 is bigger than sides a and b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Acute angles mean that c Is less than sides a and b and right angles mean that c is equal to sides a and b right ? Pythagorean theorem, just making sure I'm correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeahyeah. Nice observation. We may deduce it from Cosine Thm too: cos C = (a²+b²-c²)/(2ab) It relatea the angle C to what you have mentioned (the sign of numerator)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So obtuse?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hello?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Obtuse means C>90°, so what should be tbe cos value? Does it agree with your guessing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer is obtuse?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Help!

What is the sign of 4²+7²-8² ?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the picture should help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Acute ?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you have an email I could contact you in to ask more questions

OpenStudy (misty1212):

\[4^2+7^2-8^2=1\] a positive number

OpenStudy (misty1212):

so acute

OpenStudy (misty1212):

lol not dear, i do not give you my private email

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh sorry about that

OpenStudy (misty1212):

i can help you with another one here if you like, but i am not that good with geometry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Triangle side lengths fifteen twenty and twenty five I thin it's right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could you show the reason?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Question : find the value of x ,diagram is in my profile pic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Btw, a follow-up on the previous one: Why dont we need to find the signs of 7²+8²-4² and 8²+4²-7²?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I already understand that question, I need more help on more questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cannot view your profile picture in mobile... poor network

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a right trisngle 8 is oj the left and 9 at the bottom of the triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Umm based on that, could u apply Pyth Thm directly?
