You can put this solution on YOUR website!
cos a = -24/25
\n" ); document.write( "So, sin a = \"sqrt%281-cos%5E2%28a%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "= 7/25 (Taking positive value since, a is in quadrant II
\n" ); document.write( "Similarly,
\n" ); document.write( "cos b = \"sqrt%281-sin%5E2%28b%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "= 3/5 (since b in quadrant I)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "cos(a+b) = cosa*cosb - sina*sinb
\n" ); document.write( "= \"%28-24%2F25%29%2A%283%2F5%29+-+%287%2F25%29%2A%284%2F5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "=\"-4%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
