A scalene triangle has the lengths 6, 11, and 12. Keyla uses the law of cosines to find the measure of the largest angle. Complete her work and find the measure of angle Y to the nearest degree. 1. 122 = 112 + 62 − 2(11)(6)cos(Y) 2. 144 = 121 + 36 − (132)cos(Y) 3. 144 = 157 − (132)cos(Y) 4. −13 = −(132)cos(Y)

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of the sides of the scalene triangle are 6, 11, and 12.

We want to use the law of cosines to find the largest angle.

Note that the largest angle is always opposite the largest side.

Therefore:

The largest angle is 84 degrees to the nearest angle.

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
