Hey everyone,
I was looking over some old pre-calculus exams and I found this rather obscure looking question.. It's about trigonometry.
You're given a triangle ABC, and the legs are a (BC),b (AC), c (AB).
You're given the lenghts of a=5, b-8, and the angle C between them is 140.
The question is, what's the length of the leg "c" and what are the other 2 degrees?
Is that even possible??
Thx,
