Given:
The measure of three sides of a triangle are 8, 7 and 14.
To find:
The measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8.
Solution:
According to the Law of Cosine:
Let a=8, b=7 and c=14, then by using Law of Cosine, we get
Taking cos inverse on both sides.
Therefore, the measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8 is 22.6 degrees.
<u>Given</u>:
The given inequality is
We need to determine the solution of the inequality in interval notation.
<u>Solution of the inequality:</u>
The solution of the inequality can be determined by simplifying the inequality.
Thus, we have,
Subtracting both sides by 3, we get;
Subtracting both sides by 2u, we have;
Dividing both sides by 4, we get;
Writing it in interval notation, we get;
Thus, the solution of the inequality is
