Answer:
c = √6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given--->
a = (√3 )+1 cm , b = 2cm and ∠C = 60°
To find---> c = ?
Solution---> We know that by Cos rule is
CosC = (a² + b² - c²) / 2 ab
Cos60° = (1+√3)² + (2)² - c² / 2(1+√3) (2)
We have an identity as follows
( a + b )² = a² + b² + 2 ab
Applying it here we get
1/2 =(1)² + (√3)² + 2(1)(√3)+4-c²/4(1+√3)
4(1+√3)/2 = 1 + 3 + 2√3 + 4 - c²
2 (1 + √3 ) = 8 + 2 √3 - c²
2 + 2 √3 = 8 + 2 √3 - c²
2√3 cancel out from both sides
c² = 8 - 2
c² = 6
c = ±√6
But c is side of triangle so it can not be negative so
c = √6
