In a triangle XYZ if lt ZYZ is 60 XY 3cm and YZ... - JAMB Mathematics 1997 Question
In a triangle XYZ, if < ZYZ is 60, XY = 3cm and YZ = 4cm, calculate the length of the sides XZ.
A
√23cm
B
√13cm
C
2√5cm
D
2√3cm
correct option: b
(XZ)2 = 32 + 42 - 2 x 3 x 4 cos60o
= 25 - 24\(\frac{1}{2}\)
XZ = √13cm
= 25 - 24\(\frac{1}{2}\)
XZ = √13cm
