The video tutorial explains how to use the sine rule to find missing sides and angles in triangles that do not have a right angle. It introduces the sine and cosine rules, focusing on the sine rule for this session. The tutorial provides step-by-step examples of using the sine rule to calculate a missing side and a missing angle, emphasizing the importance of correctly labeling sides and angles. The video concludes with a brief mention of when to use the sine rule and a preview of the cosine rule for future lessons.

Why do we need alternative rules like the sine and cosine rules?

• Because all triangles are right-angled.

• Because not all triangles have a right angle.

• Because Pythagoras' theorem is always applicable.

• Because they are easier to use than SOHCAHTOA.
