<h3>Answer:  116.2°</h3>

Work Shown:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos(C)\\\\55^2 = 24^2 + 40^2 - 2*24*40\cos(C)\\\\3025 = 576 + 1600 - 1920\cos(C)\\\\3025 = 2176 - 1920\cos(C)\\\\3025 - 2176  = -1920\cos(C)\\\\849  = -1920\cos(C)\\\\-1920\cos(C) = 849\\\\\cos(C) = (849)/(-1920)\\\\\cos(C) \approx -0.4421875\\\\C \approx \cos^{-1}(-0.4421875)\\\\C \approx 116.243535748231^{\circ}\\\\C \approx 116.2^{\circ}\\\\

The first equation is one of the three variations for the Law of Cosines.

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

How can you apply the Addition Rule and interpret the answer in terms of the model?
Sergio [31]
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

if u have a dice and want to roll 1 or 2 
P(1) = 1/6
P(2) = 1/6

P(1 or 2) = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3
