Capitolo 8, Problema 55
Find the area of each triangle ABC.
A = 56.80°, b = 32.67 in., c = 52.89 in.
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the given elements: angle \(A = 56.80^\circ\), side \(b = 32.67\) inches, and side \(c = 52.89\) inches. We need to find the area of triangle \(ABC\).
Recall the formula for the area of a triangle when two sides and the included angle are known: \(\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2}bc \sin A\).
Substitute the known values into the formula: \(\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 32.67 \times 52.89 \times \sin(56.80^\circ)\).
Calculate \(\sin(56.80^\circ)\) using a calculator or trigonometric table, ensuring your calculator is in degree mode.
Multiply the values together to find the area: first multiply the two sides, then multiply by the sine of the angle, and finally multiply by \(\frac{1}{2}\).

Concetti chiave
Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Law of Cosines
The Law of Cosines relates the lengths of the sides of a triangle to the cosine of one of its angles. It is useful for finding an unknown side or angle when two sides and the included angle are known. The formula is c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos(C), which helps in determining missing elements in oblique triangles.

Intro to Law of Cosines
Area of a Triangle Using Two Sides and Included Angle
The area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula (1/2)bc sin(A), where b and c are two sides and A is the included angle between them. This method is especially useful when the height is unknown but two sides and the included angle are given, allowing direct computation of the area.
