1 Section.4 Law of Sines and osines Oblique Triangle A triangle that is not a right triangle, either acute or obtuse. The measures of the three sides and the three angles of a triangle can be found if at least one side and any other two measures are known. The Law of Sines There are many relationships that exist between the sides and angles in a triangle. One such relation is called the law of sines. Given triangle A or, equivalently sin A sin sin a b c sin a sin b A sin c Proof sin A h b sin h a h bsin A (1) h asin () From (1) & () h h bsin A asin bsin A asin ab ab sin A sin a b 8
2 Angle Side - Angle (ASA or AAS) If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal, respectively, to two angles and the included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent. Example In triangle A, A ( A ) 180 (30 70) , 70, and a 8.0 cm. Find the length of side c. c sin a sin A c a sin sin A 8 sin sin cm Example Find the missing parts of triangle A if 180 ( ) 180 (3 81.8) 66. a b sin A sin b asin sin A 4.9sin 66. sin cm A 3, c a sin sin A c asin sin A sin 81.8 sin cm,, and a 4.9 cm. 9
3 Example You wish to measure the distance across a River. You determine that = 11.90, A = 31.10, and. Find the distance a across the river. b ft 180 A a b sin A sin a sin 31.1 sin 36 a sin 31.1 sin 36 a ft Example Find distance x if a = 56 ft., x a sin sin A x asin sin A 56sin 5.7 sin ft 5. 7 and A
4 Example A hot-air balloon is flying over a dry lake when the wind stops blowing. The balloon comes to a stop 450 feet above the ground at point D. A jeep following the balloon runs out of gas at point A. The nearest service station is due north of the jeep at point. The bearing of the balloon from the jeep at A is N 13 E, while the bearing of the balloon from the service station at is S 19 E. If the angle of elevation of the balloon from A is 1, how far will the people in the jeep have to walk to reach the service station at point? tan1 D A A D tan1 450 tan1,117 ft A 180 (13 19) 148 Using triangle A A 117 sin148 sin19 A 117sin148 sin19 3, 400 ft 31
5 Ambiguous ase Side Angle Side (SAS) If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal, respectively, to two sides and the included angle of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent. Example Find angle in triangle A if a =, b = 6, and A 30 sin sin A b a sin bsin A a Since 6sin 30 1 sin sin 1 is impossible, no such triangle exists. Example Find the missing parts in triangle A if = 35.4, a = 05 ft., and c = 314 ft. sin A asin c 05 sin A sin 1 (0.378) A. A (. 35.4) 1. 4 b csin sin 314sin1.4 sin ft A
6 Example Find the missing parts in triangle A if a = 54 cm, b = 6 cm, and A = 40. sin sin A b a sin bsin A a 6sin sin 1 (0.738) (40 48) 180 (40 13) 9 c asin sin A 54sin 9 sin cm 8 c asin sin A 54sin 8 sin 40 1 cm 33
7 Area of a Triangle (SAS) In any triangle A, the area A is given by the following formulas: A 1 bcsin A A 1 acsin A 1 absin Example Find the area of triangle A if A 440, b 7.3 cm, and a b sin A sin a 7.3 sin 4 40 sin sin 440 a sin cm A 1 acsin 1 (11.7)(7.3)sin cm Example Find the area of triangle A. A 1 acsin sin ft 34
8 Number of Triangles Satisfying the Ambiguous ase (SSA) Let sides a and b and angle A be given in triangle A. (The law of sines can be used to calculate the value of sin.) 1. If applying the law of sines results in an equation having sin > 1, then no triangle satisfies the given conditions.. If sin = 1, then one triangle satisfies the given conditions and = If 0 < sin < 1, then either one or two triangles satisfy the given conditions. a) If sin = k, then let b) Let 180. If 1 in the second triangle. sin 1 k 1 and use A for in the first triangle., then a second triangle exists. In this case, use for 35
