There's already a formula for this question. But I don't understand it. Can we not use the arc sin to find the angles because this isn't a right triangle? I've attached 2 images. the first is the question. the second is the formula we were provided for this problem on the site. On the second photo. please 1.) explain why we're using 2ABCos theta and 2.) where the 128 before Cos theta went. Thank you ---### Understanding Vector Magnitudes and Angles Vectors **A** and **B** both have a magnitude of 8.0. If the sum of these two vectors is 10, calculate the cosine of the angle between them.#### Formula:\[ R^2 = A^2 + B^2 + 2AB \cos\theta \]### Steps:1. **Substitute the values:** Given: \[ R = 10, A = 8, B = 8 \] Plugging them into the formula: \[ 10^2 = 8^2 + 8^2 + 2 \cdot 8 \cdot 8 \cdot \cos \theta \] \[ 100 = 64 + 64 + 128 \cos \theta \]2. **Solve for \( \cos \theta \):** Simplify the equation: \[ 100 = 128 + 128 \cos \theta \] Subtract 128 from both sides: \[ \frac{100}{128} = 1 + \cos \theta \] Isolate \( \cos \theta \): \[ \cos \theta = \frac{100}{128} - 1 \] \[ \cos \theta = \frac{100 - 128}{128} \] \[ \cos \theta = \frac{-28}{128} \] Simplify the fraction: \[ \cos \theta = \frac{-7}{32} \]### Conclusion:The cosine of the angle \( \theta \) between vectors **A** and **B** is \( \cos \theta = -\frac{7}{32} \).---#### Visualization:While no graphs or diagrams are provided here, understanding the relationship between vectors visually can greatly aid in comprehension.

Can anyone please help me to solve this problem? I am stuck!
So I have pictures of the question and what I did so far. I still need another angle or side to use the law of sines or cosines but I don't know how.
You decide to purchase new cameras. The descriptions include viewing angles, but you're not sure which one to buy. You want one camera to be facing the back door, which is 7 feet tall, and to be mounted 12 feet from the ground on a wall 10 feet across from the door. The camera does not need to go higher than anything that's horizontal with the camera, and needs to be able to completely view the door. What angle, theta, allows this to happen? Typically, cheaper cameras have smaller viewing angles. If you mount the camera on a different wall that is 12 feet away from the door, and still 12 feet off the ground, could you buy a cheaper camera?
