Cosine rule

What is the cosine rule?

  • The cosine rule is used in non right-angled triangles

    • It allows us to find missing side lengths or angles

  • It states that for any triangle

a squared equals b squared plus c squared minus 2 b c space cos space A

  • Where

    • a is the side opposite angle A

    • b and c are the other two sides

      • b and c are either side of angle A

      • A is the angle between them

Non Right-Angled Triangle labelled with angles A, B and C and opposite corresponding sides a, b and c.

How do I use the cosine rule to find a missing length?

  • Use the cosine rule for lengths

    • when you have two sides and the angle between them

    • and you want to find the opposite side, a

  • Start by labelling your triangle with the angles and sides

    • Angles have upper case letters

    • Sides opposite the angles have the equivalent lower case letter

  • Substitute values into <img alt=”a squared equals b squared plus c squared minus 2 b c space cos space A” data-mathml=”<math ><semantics><mrow><msup><mi>a</mi><mn>2</mn></msup><mo>=</mo><msup><mi>b</mi><mn>2</mn></msup><mo>+</mo><msup><mi>c</mi><mn>2</mn></msup><mo>-</mo><mn>2</mn><mi>b</mi><mi>c</mi><mo>&#160;</mo><mi>cos</mi><mo>&#160;</mo><mi>A</mi></mrow><annotation encoding=”application/vnd.wiris.mtweb-params+json”>{“fontFamily”:”Times New Roman”,”fontSize”:”18″,”autoformat”:true,”toolbar”:”<toolbar ref=’general’><tab ref=’general’><removeItem ref=’setColor’/><removeItem ref=’bold’/><removeItem ref=’italic’/><removeItem ref=’autoItalic’/><removeItem ref=’setUnicode’/><removeItem ref=’mtext’ /><removeItem ref=’rtl’/><removeItem ref=’forceLigature’/><removeItem ref=’setFontFamily’ /><removeItem ref=’setFontSize’/></tab></toolbar>”}</annotation></semantics></math>” height=”23″ role=”math” src=”data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf8,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20xmlns%3Awrs%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wiris.com%2Fxml%2Fmathml-extension%22%20height%3D%2223%22%20width%3D%22174%22%20wrs%3Abaseline%3D%2217%22%3E%3C!–MathML%3A%20%3Cmath%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F1998%2FMath%2FMathML%22%3E%3Cmsup%3E%3Cmi%3Ea%3C%2Fmi%3E%3Cmn%3E2%3C%2Fmn%3E%3C%2Fmsup%3E%3Cmo%3E%3D%3C%2Fmo%3E%3Cmsup%3E%3Cmi%3Eb%3C%2Fmi%3E%3Cmn%3E2%3C%2Fmn%3E%3C%2Fmsup%3E%3Cmo%3E%2B%3C%2Fmo%3E%3Cmsup%3E%3Cmi%3Ec%3C%2Fmi%3E%3Cmn%3E2%3C%2Fmn%3E%3C%2Fmsup%3E%3Cmo%3E-%3C%2Fmo%3E%3Cmn%3E2%3C%2Fmn%3E%3Cmi%3Eb%3C%2Fmi%3E%3Cmi%3Ec%3C%2Fmi%3E%3Cmo%3E%26%23xA0%3B%3C%2Fmo%3E%3Cmi%3Ecos%3C%2Fmi%3E%3Cmo%3E%26%23xA0%3B%3C%2Fmo%3E%3Cmi%3EA%3C%2Fmi%3E%3C%2Fmath%3E–%3E%3Cdefs%3E%3Cstyle%20type%3D%22text%2Fcss%22%3E%40font-face%7Bfont-family%3A’math19290e2477baefb8e9b15f4a12a’%3Bsrc%3Aurl(data%3Afont%2Ftruetype%3Bcharset%3Dutf-8%3Bbase64%2CAAEAAAAMAIAAAwBAT1MvMi7iBBMAAADMAAAATmNtYXDEvmKUAAABHAAAAERjdnQgDVUNBwAAAWAAAAA6Z2x5ZoPi2VsAAAGcAAABdWhlYWQQC2qxAAADFAAAADZoaGVhCGsXSAAAA0wAAAAkaG10eE2rRkcAAANwAAAAEGxvY2EAHTwYAAADgAAAABRtYXhwBT0FPgAAA5QAAAAgbmFtZaBxlY4AAAO0AAABn3Bvc3QB9wD6AAAFVAAAACBwcmVwa1uragAABXQAAAAUAAADSwGQAAUAAAQABAAAAAAABAAEAAAAAAAAAQEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACAgICAAAAAg1UADev96AAAD6ACWAAAAAAACAAEAAQAAABQAAwABAAAAFAAEADAAAAAIAAgAAgAAACsAPSIS%2F%2F8AAAArAD0iEv%2F%2F%2F9b%2Fxd3xAAEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVQDLACAAQAAVgAqAlgCHgEOASwCLABaAYACgACgANQAgAAAAAAAAAArAFUAgACrANUBAAErAAcAAAACAFUAAAMAA6sAAwAHAAAzESERJSERIVUCq%2F2rAgD%2BAAOr%2FFVVAwAAAQCAAFUC1QKrAAsASQEYsgwBARQTELEAA%2FaxAQT1sAo8sQMF9bAIPLEFBPWwBjyxDQPmALEAABMQsQEG5LEBARMQsAU8sQME5bELBfWwBzyxCQTlMTATIREzESEVIREjESGAAQBVAQD%2FAFX%2FAAGrAQD%2FAFb%2FAAEAAAIAgADrAtUCFQADAAcAZRgBsAgQsAbUsAYQsAXUsAgQsAHUsAEQsADUsAYQsAc8sAUQsAQ8sAEQsAI8sAAQsAM8ALAIELAG1LAGELAH1LAHELAB1LABELAC1LAGELAFPLAHELAEPLABELAAPLACELADPDEwEyE1IR0BITWAAlX9qwJVAcBV1VVVAAEAgAFVAtUBqwADADAYAbAEELEAA%2FawAzyxAgf1sAE8sQUD5gCxAAATELEABuWxAAETELABPLEDBfWwAjwTIRUhgAJV%2FasBq1YAAAAAAQAAAAEAANV4zkFfDzz1AAMEAP%2F%2F%2F%2F%2FWOhNz%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F9Y6E3MAAP8gBIADqwAAAAoAAgABAAAAAAABAAAD6P9qAAAXcAAA%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%2F)format(‘truetype’)%3Bfont-weight%3Anormal%3Bfont-style%3Anormal%3B%7D%3C%2Fstyle%3E%3C%2Fdefs%3E%3Ctext%20font-family%3D%22Times%20New%20Roman%22%20font-size%3D%2218%22%20font-style%3D%22italic%22%20text-anchor%3D%22middle%22%20x%3D%224.5%22%20y%3D%2217%22%3Ea%3C%2Ftext%3E%3Ctext%20font-family%3D%
