Cuboid

Determine the dimensions of cuboid a, b, c; if diagonal d=9 dm has angle with edge a α=55° and has angle with edge b β=58°

Result

a =  5.16 dm
b =  3.91 dm
c =  6.25 dm

Solution:

$a = 9 \cdot cos(55 ^\circ ) = 5.16 \ \text{dm}$
$b = 9 \cdot sin(55 ^\circ ) \cdot cos(58 ^\circ ) = 3.91 \ \text{dm}$
$c = 9 \cdot sin(55 ^\circ ) \cdot sin(58 ^\circ ) = 6.25 \ \text{dm}$
