How to do these
In a triangle, , and . Find
- a over sin A equals b over sin B.
- So b is a sin B over sin A: 8 × (√2/2) ÷ (1/2).
The answer is .
Where students go wrong
Pairing a side with the wrong angle. The rule only works when the angle is opposite the side, not merely next to it.
Also called sine rule or solving oblique triangles.
