The Law of Cosines for an "n"-Dimensional Simplex
Ding, Yiren
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v39 n3 p407-410 Apr 2008
Using the divergence theorem technique of L. Eifler and N.H. Rhee, "The n-dimensional Pythagorean Theorem via the Divergence Theorem" (to appear: Amer. Math. Monthly), we extend the law of cosines for a triangle in a plane to an "n"-dimensional simplex in an "n"-dimensional space.
