<em>Since we are given with the three sides of the triangle and asked to determine the angle, we can use the cosine law.</em>
<em> b² = a² + c² - 2ac(cosB)</em>
<em>Substituting the known values,</em>
<em> (1.8)² = (2.4)² + (1.6)² - 2(2.4)(1.6)(cosB)</em>
<em>The value of B from the equation is 48.6°. </em>
First do the ones in the parentheses. So, 2x3=6. 26-6=20. 20^2=400. Now you have 27-4x400. 4x400=1600. 27-1600=-1573.
That is about right... 2,514 X 2 = 5,028 so he is about 1,000 off. I will leave the rest to you.
