+981 Hey FiestyGeco!
I can only help you with 3, since the pictures won't show.
For 3, we use \(c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos\gamma\), the law of cosines.
This formula generalizes the Pythagorean Theorem, since \(\cos90º=0\Rightarrow a^2+b^2=c^2\)
We can write: \(CB^2=CA^2+AB^2-2(AC)(AB)-\cos{A}\)
\((4\sqrt3)^2=(4\sqrt2)^2+AB^2-2(4\sqrt2)(AB)-\cos60\\ 48=32+AB^2-8\sqrt2AB-\frac12\\ \)
After solving for AB, you use the same formula to solve for the angle.
This doesn't look like the best method, does anyone know a less rigid way of doing this?
I hope this helped,
Gavin
