  1. Section 5.7

    The Law of Cosines
  2. The Law of Cosines Like the Law of Sines, we use this to solve triangles that are not right triangles (no 90° angles). The Law of Cosines can help to solve triangles that the Law of Sines can not solve.
  3. Law of Cosines (cont.) These all represent the same law, just different ways of showing it…
  4. Example Solve ΔABC if A = 52°, b = 6 and c = 8.
  5. Example #2 Solve ΔABC if a = 21, b = 16.7 and c = 10.3.
