Answer:C
Step-by-step explanation:
The law of cosines is: a^2 = b^2+c^2-2abcosA
14^2 = 17^2+22^2-2(17)(22)cosA
196 = 289 + 484 - 2(17)(22)cosA (we now subtract 289 from 196)
-93 = 484 - 2(17)(22)cosA (now we subtract 484 from -93)
-577 = -2(17)(22)cosA (we no divide -577 by the product of -2(17)(22) which is -748)
-577/-748 (since both are negative you can make them positive)
577/748=cos^-1A
39.52 = Angle A
