FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the Law of Sines?

Back

The Law of Sines states that the ratio of the length of a side of a triangle to the sine of the angle opposite that side is constant for all three sides and angles in the triangle. It can be expressed as: (a/sin(A)) = (b/sin(B)) = (c/sin(C)).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you use the Law of Sines to find an unknown angle?

Back

To find an unknown angle using the Law of Sines, rearrange the formula to isolate the sine of the angle: sin(A) = (a * sin(B)) / b, then use the inverse sine function to find the angle.
