Apply the law of sines when you are given AAS

The video tutorial explains how to apply the Law of Sines to solve a triangle problem. It begins with setting up the triangle and correcting angles, followed by converting mixed numbers to decimals for easier calculations. The tutorial then demonstrates using the Law of Sines to find missing angles and sides, specifically calculating sides B and C step-by-step.

What is the first step when you are given information but no triangle?

• Find the perimeter of the triangle

• Draw an oblique triangle

• Convert all angles to radians

• Calculate the area of the triangle

How do you convert a mixed number to a decimal?

• Divide the whole number by the fraction

• Multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator, then divide by the denominator

• Add the whole number to the fraction

• Subtract the fraction from the whole number

What is the sum of angles in a triangle?

• 90 degrees

• 180 degrees

• 360 degrees

• 270 degrees

Which formula represents the Law of Sines?

• a^2 + b^2 = c^2

• a*b*c = sin(A)*sin(B)*sin(C)

• a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

• a + b + c = 180

What is the calculated length of side B?

• 3.625

• 2.29

• 4.73

• 1.85

Why does it make sense that side B is shorter than side A?

• Because side B is opposite the smallest angle

• Because angle B is smaller than angle A

• Because angle B is larger than angle A

• Because side B is opposite the largest angle

What is the calculated length of side C?

• 2.29

• 3.625

• 5.12

• 4.73
