To find AB given the values of a, b, and c, we use the Law of Cosines or other relationships depending on the context. Assuming we're dealing with a triangle, we use the formula:
\[ c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cdot \cos(C) \]
However, since the angles aren't specified here, let me know if you have more context or details about how a, b, and c are related. With just the numbers 18 and 7 given, I cannot determine AB directly.
If you're looking for a specific mathematical method (like the Pythagorean theorem if AB is the hypotenuse in a right triangle), please specify the situation or give more context, including any relevant angle measures. This will help in accurately determining AB.
