Consider a triangle ABC like the one below. Suppose that a = 46, c=53, and A=37º. (The figure is not drawn to scale.) Solve the triangle. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answers to the nearest tenth.
If no such triangle exists, enter "No solution." If there is more than one solution, use the button labeled "or".

a4 - 3a2 - 1

step-by-step explanation:

step   1   :

equation at the end of step   1   :

  ((a4) -   3a2) -   1

step   2   :

trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     factoring   a4-3a2-1  

the first term is,   a4   its coefficient is   1 .

the middle term is,   -3a2   its coefficient is   -3 .

the last term, "the constant", is   -1  

the square root of what number? if you add that, then someone will probably answer the question.
