Cos B = 0.54
We can use our scientific calculator to find an angle whose cosine value is 0. 54. Using a
scientific calculator, B= 57.32˚
Since we already found that ∠B = 57.32˚ then
∠A = 90˚ - 57.32˚, ∠A = 32.68˚
Using the Pythagorean Theorem: a2+b2 =
c2
a2+(7)2 = (13)2
a2 = 169-49
a2 = 120
a = √120
a = 10.95
