Anew landowner has a triangular piece of flat land she wishes to fence. starting at the first corner, she measures the first side to be 5.5 m long and is directed 0.8 radians north of east. from the second corner, the second side is 4.3 m long and is directed 0.4 radians west of north. what is the length of the third side of the fence?

Length of third side = 3.97m

Explanation:

First of all, let we draw the triangle from the given information assuming our first corner is A. second corner is B and third corner is C.

From A-B we have distance = 5.5m = Say it c

From B-C we have distance = 4.3m = Say it a

From A-C we have distance = ? = Say it b which we have to find out.

Using the Law of Cosines: The square of the unknown side equals to the sum of squares of other 2 sides and subtracting 2*(Product of other sides)*(Cos(Angle opposite to the unknown side)

For our case it is:

b² = a² + c² - 2acCos(B)         -  Say it equation 1

From the attached triangle you may see that, a & c are our known sides and B is the angle opposite to the side b.

There values are:

a = 4.3m;  c = 5.5m ; Angle B = 0.8 rad = 0.8 * 57.3 = 45.84 degrees where 1 rad = 57.3 degrees

Now by putting the respectve values in equation 1 we have:

b² = (4.3)² + (5.5)² - 2*4.3*5.5*Cos(45.84)

b² = 18.49 + 30.25 - 32.95

b² = 15.79

b  = √15.79

b = 3.97m

Thus the length of third side is 3.97m.

PS: The picture of triangle is being attached for yours understanding.

its c its is a mixture of gases

hi i’m sorry to call us today so we will get back with y’all and we will have to do it haha omg was the day
