I have a triangle with sides 1000 and 1200 with an angle of 130° between them.
Clearly a cosine law problem
d^2 = 1000^2 + 1200^2 - 2(1000)(1200) cos 130°
= ...
d = √...
=
let me know what you get.

SO this problem is a cosine law problem?
And if i did the problem right...
It should be 7276.412812...
I changed the degree (130 degrees) to radians
If i should not change the degree to radians... it should be 1822.498064...
