Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Given the sides of a triangle are a = 7 cm, b = 9 cm, and angle C is unknown. Rearrange the Cosine Rule to find cos C, then calculate cos C.
[3 marks]
2.
Rearrange the Cosine Rule to solve for angle A when sides a = 8 cm, b = 6 cm, and side c = 10 cm. Then, calculate the value of angle A in degrees.
[4 marks]
3.
The sides of a triangle are 5 cm, 9 cm, and 10 cm. Rearrange the Cosine Rule to find angle B, and compute its approximate value.
[4 marks]
4.
If sides a = 12 cm, b = 15 cm, and the included angle C is 60°, rearrange the Cosine Rule to find side c.
[3 marks]
5.
Rewrite the Cosine Rule to solve for side c given sides a and b and angle C. Then, use it to find side c when a = 6 cm, b = 8 cm, and cos C = 0.5.
[4 marks]
6.
A triangle has sides 10 cm, 14 cm, and an angle C opposite the side of 14 cm. Rearrange the Cosine Rule to find cos C and determine the angle in degrees.
[4 marks]
7.
A triangle has sides 8 cm, 6 cm, and 10 cm. Rearrange the Cosine Rule to find angle A and justify your rearrangement steps.
[5 marks]
8.
Given sides 13 cm, 14 cm, and an unknown angle C, rearrange the Cosine Rule to find cos C, then calculate the angle in degrees. Explain your steps.
[5 marks]
9.
A triangle has sides 7 cm, 9 cm, and 11 cm. Rearrange the Cosine Rule to find angle B, then determine its measure in degrees.
[4 marks]
10.
Construct a triangle with sides 5 cm, 7 cm, and 9 cm on the grid. Using the rearranged Cosine Rule, find angle C in degrees.
[5 marks]
11.
Identify the error in the following rearranged Cosine Rule expression for finding angle A: cos A = (b² + c² - a²) / (2bc). Is it correct? If not, correct it and justify your answer.
[3 marks]
