The correct Answer is:
To solve for \( c \) in triangle \( ABC \) where \( a = 4 \), \( b = 3 \), and \( \angle A = 60^\circ \), we can use the Law of Cosines. The Law of Cosines states: \[ c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos A \] ### Step 1: Substitute the known values into the formula. Given: - \( a = 4 \) - \( b = 3 \) - \( \angle A = 60^\circ \) We know that \( \cos 60^\circ = \frac{1}{2} \). Substituting these values into the Law of Cosines: \[ c^2 = 4^2 + 3^2 - 2 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot \cos 60^\circ \] ### Step 2: Calculate \( a^2 \) and \( b^2 \). Calculating \( a^2 \) and \( b^2 \): \[ c^2 = 16 + 9 - 2 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation. Now, simplify the expression: \[ c^2 = 16 + 9 - 2 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \] \[ = 16 + 9 - 12 \] \[ = 13 \] ### Step 4: Rearranging the equation. Now we can rewrite the equation: \[ c^2 - 13 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Rearranging to standard form. To express this in the form of a quadratic equation, we can rearrange it: \[ c^2 - 0c - 13 = 0 \] ### Final Equation: The final equation we derived is: \[ c^2 - 0c - 13 = 0 \] ### Conclusion: Thus, the equation whose roots will give us the value of \( c \) is: \[ c^2 - 0c - 13 = 0 \]
