Asked by Chris

Answered by bobpursley
sides of triangle are (2+2.5),(2+3),(2.5+3)

Start with law of cosines

c^2=a^2+b^2-2abCosC

label the sides a,b, c solve for angle C
Then, use the law of sines
a/SinA=c/SinC solve for angle A
then use the fact that the sum of the angles is 180 deg, find angle B.
check angle B with the law of sines.
