Question 1033686
A triangular plot of land has sides of lengths 430 feet, 380 feet, and 190 feet. Approximate the smallest angle between the sides. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) 
------------
The smallest angle (A) is the angle opposite the smallest side::
Use the Law of Cosines to find the angle opposite the 190 ft side::
------------
(430^2 + 380^2 - 190^2) / (2*430*380) = cos(A)
----------------
cos(A) = 0.8972
-----
A = 26.2 degrees
