\n" ); document.write( "Use Law of Cosines:
\n" ); document.write( "Example
\n" ); document.write( "If a = 3 and b = 4 and angle C = 30 degrees,
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "c^2 = a^2 + b^2-2ab*cos(C)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "c^2 = 3^2+4^2-2*12*(sqrt(3)/2)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "c^2 = 25-12*sqrt(3)
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "c = sqrt[4.215..]
\n" ); document.write( "c = 2.053
