Law of Sines

SinA/a = SinB/b = SinC/c

2
New cards

Law of Cosines

a² = b² + c² -2bccosA, b² = a² + c² -2accosB, c² = b² + a² -2bacosC

3
New cards

Area of a Triangle

1/2absinC, 1/2acsinB, 1/2bcsinA

4
New cards

Height of a triangle (h)

bSinA (angle and adjacent side)

5
New cards

I know there will be an Ambiguous Case when

The opposite side is less than the given side length.

6
New cards

One Triangle

One side is greater than the height and greater than the other side.

7
New cards

One Right Triangle

The side equals the height and is just the right length to form a right triangle.

8
New cards

No Triangle

The side is less than the height and is not long enough to form a triangle.

9
New cards

Two triangles

The side is greater than the height and less than the other side. Two distinct triangles are formed.
