    13.5 Law of Sines

    Uploaded by

    Elmar Perez Blanco
    The Law of Sine can be used to solve triangles that are not right triangles. It relates the ratios of the sides to the sines of the opposite angles. Specifically, the ratio of any side to the sine of its opposite angle is equal to the ratios of the other two sides and their opposite angles. This allows for the calculation of unknown sides and angles given sufficient other information about a triangle. The document also discusses using the Law of Sine to calculate the area of a triangle given different combinations of side lengths and angles.

    Law of Sine

    To:
    Mrs.Fayusal
    The Law Of Sine can be used to solve
    triangles that are not right triangles.

    A unique triangle can be formed if you


    know the measures of two angles and
    one included side (ASA) or measures of
    two angles and a non-included side
    (AAS) .
    2
    Formula for law of sine

    __a__ = __b__= __c__


    sinA sinB sinC

    3
    Allowing ABC to be any triangle with a , b , and c
    being opposite of the measures of the sides
    opposite of the angles with measurements A , B ,
    and C. The area K can be found using the following
    formulas;
    Area of a triangle

    K= ½ bc sin A K= ½ ac sin B
    k= ½ ab sin C

    4
    Since the sum of the
    three angles in every
    triangle is 180°,
    subtract the
    two angle measures
    from 180° to determine
    the measure of the
    third angle. Finding the
    side lengths is more
    difficult; finding a
    method for determining
    the side lengths is the
    purpose of this lesson
