solve this triangle
|dw:1323111856150:dw| mp=10.5 pj=9.25
MP=10.5 PJ=9.25
is there anything else given in the question
NO
no right angles, or any angles...
i think it's a right angled triangle , right angle at p JM^2=MP^2+PJ^2 JM=14.15
http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/trig-solving-triangles.html try the law of sines or cosines
if its not right triangle
http://www.freemathhelp.com/q6-right-triangle.html use this if it is a right triangle
for that also we need atleast one angle
the angle would be 90 degrees
http://www.cliffsnotes.com/study_guide/Solving-General-Triangles.topicArticleId-11658,articleId-11577.html this might help
then there's no need of using sines, apply pythagoras and then use trignometry to find each angle
ooo. u mean for sines, I've never used them before, but they seemed to be relevant to the problem :) im only in geometry
