I have been working on this problem and feel kind of stuck:

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"Consider a triangle ABC.
\n" ); document.write( "Suppose that sides a=63, b=51, and c=16.
\n" ); document.write( "Solve the triangle.\r

\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "When I try to break it down using the Inverse Cosine, I keep getting NaN. Not sure if I am doing it wrong or if it is actually No Solution.
\n" ); document.write( "==============================================
\n" ); document.write( "IDK what NaN means. Sodium Nitrogen?

\n" ); document.write( "Use the Cosine Law to find an angle.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab*cos(C)
\n" ); document.write( "16^2 = 63^2 + 51^2 - 2*63*51*cos(C)
\n" ); document.write( "cos(C) = -6314/-6426 =~ 0.982571
\n" ); document.write( "C =~ 10.71295 degs
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Then use either the Cosine Law of the Law of Sines to find a 2nd angle.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "The 3rd angle = 180 - (angle1 + angle2)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
