In any triangle ABC, if `a=18 , b=24 , c=30`, findcosA, cosB, cosC

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `30^2 = 18^2+24^2`
That means triangle ABC is aright angle triangle with `/_C = 90^@`
With the given details, `cosA = (AC)/(AB) = b/c = 24/30 = 4/5`
`cosB = (BC)/(AB) = a/c = 18/30 = 3/5`
`cosC = cos90^@ = 0`
