x = 6.0
y = 12.0
L1 = 12"
L2 = 10"
R = sqrtof(10^2+12^2) = 15.62
theta = tan^-1(y/x) = tan^-1(12/6) = 63.43º
How do I find theta1, and theta2?
Sorry for the yellow:

I don't remember those laws. :[ how is R equal to that? you can only use pythagorean theorem for a right-triangle. I'm kind of confused on the question, you should word it better. edit: lol at the theta | ||

also law of cosines is given triangle w/ lengths a b c and respective angles alpha beta gamma, c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos(gamma) (pythag theorem is when gamma=pi/2) | ||

I assumed x=x component of R and y=y component of R? also law of cosines is given triangle w/ lengths a b c and respective angles alpha beta gamma, c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos(gamma) Correct. If R is given by the (x,y) components, then it should be easy to plug in a, b, c and solve for gamma. | ||

So basically it is: 13.42^2 = 10^2 + 12^2 - 2(10)(12)cos(gamma) 180 = 100+144 - 240cos(gamma) 180 = 244 - 240cos(gamma) Oh fuck I fail at Algebra, I know the gamma has to be alone, so move the (244 - 240cos) to the other side? | ||

Thanks hellhawk, so that would be theta1? | ||

I'm of the understanding that L1 is only the black and not the yellow line. | ||

theta1 is theta minus the angel opposite l2. Finding those angles is a matter of plugging in the cosine rule, right? | ||
