FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for the Law of Sines?
Back
The formula for the Law of Sines is: (a/sin(A)) = (b/sin(B)) = (c/sin(C)), where a, b, and c are the sides of the triangle and A, B, and C are the angles opposite those sides.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for the Law of Cosines?
Back
The formula for the Law of Cosines is: c² = a² + b² - 2ab*cos(C), where c is the side opposite angle C, and a and b are the other two sides.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
When do you use the Law of Sines?
Back
You use the Law of Sines when you have either two angles and one side (AAS or ASA) or two sides and a non-included angle (SSA) in a triangle.
