Okay, you will need to use the law of cosines for this problem.
The Law of Cosines states (in this case): a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2 * b * c * cos A, where "a" is the side opposite angle A (7 inches), and b and c are the other two sides.
Plug the numbers in and you get: 7^2 = 5^2 + 9^2 - 2 * 5 * 9 * cos A, or:
49 = 25 + 81 - 90 * cos A.
Subtract (25 + 81) from both sides to get:
-57 = -90 * cos A.
Divide by -90 on both sides:
cos A = 19/30
To find A, you do the inverse trigonometric function to get:
cos^-1 of (19/30) = A.
I don't have a calculator that can do this right now, but if you plug the left side of the above equation into it (make sure it is in degrees, not radians), you should get A.
None of them are correct.
You have to isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
And when you do so you get a closed point starting at positive 8 and an extending ray to positive infinity and a closed point at -15 with a ray extending to negative infinity on the number line so none of them are correct.
By the fundamental theorem of calculus,

which means
