Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Rearrange the Cosine Rule to find the angle C in a triangle with sides a = 7, b = 10, and c = 12.
[3 marks]
2.
Calculate the value of angle C when sides are a=7, b=10, c=12, and rearranged formula is applied.
[3 marks]
3.
A triangle has sides of 8 cm, 15 cm, and 17 cm. Use the rearranged Cosine Rule to find angle A opposite side 8 cm.
[3 marks]
4.
Given sides of 8, 15, and 17 cm, calculate angle A.
[3 marks]
5.
Rearrange the formula to find side c given sides a, b and angle C.
[3 marks]
6.
If a=9, b=12, and angle C=60°, find side c using the rearranged formula.
[4 marks]
7.
A triangle with sides 5 cm, 7 cm, and an unknown side c has an angle C of 100° opposite side c. Rearrange the formula to find c.
[3 marks]
8.
Calculate side c in the triangle with sides 5 cm, 7 cm and angle C=100°.
[4 marks]
9.
A practical scenario: A ladder leans against a wall forming a triangle with ground and wall. The ladder length is 10 m, and the distance from wall to foot of ladder is 6 m. Use the rearranged cosine formula to find the angle between the ladder and the ground.
[4 marks]
10.
Identify and correct the mistake: The formula c² = a² + b² + 2ab cos C was used to find side c.
[2 marks]
11.
A triangle has sides 9, 12, and 15. Use the rearranged formula to verify if the triangle is obtuse, right-angled, or acute based on the angles calculated.
[4 marks]
12.
Construct a triangle on the grid with sides 8 cm, 15 cm, and 17 cm. Use the rearranged formula to approximate the angles.
[4 marks]
