Sagot :

Answer:  9 meters

===========================================

Work Shown:

  • side a = 8
  • side b = 5
  • angle C = 88 degrees

Applying the law of cosines

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2*a*b*cos(C)

c^2 = 8^2 + 5^2 - 2*8*5*cos(88)

c^2 = 64 + 25 - 80*cos(88)

c^2 = 86.2080403

c = sqrt(86.2080403)

c = 9.2848285

c = 9

Technically he needs 10 meters of rope because of the extra 0.28 portion, but I'll stick with 9 meters since your teacher said to round to the nearest whole number.
