the area of triangle ABC is 3 square root 2 square inches.find the measuare of the acute angle, angle A, if b = 9 meters and c = 2 meters
This requires a triangle area formula
A=(1/2)ab sin C=3sqrt(2)
In this case a and b are side lengths and C is the included angle.
Therefore A=(1/2)(9)(2)Sin A=3sqrt(2)
Simplify to get 9Sin A=3sqrt(2)
Sin A = sqrt(2)/3
Sin^-1 (Sqrt(2)/3)=28.1 degrees
