|dw:1352218960929:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if side a and b is given..angle A is given..solves c,angle B and angle C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use the law of sines do you have specific numbers?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no..but how i should do to get c?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{\sin(A)}{a}=\frac{\sin(B)}{b}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

without using specific value..can u derived formulae to get c and angle C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

once you have angle B you know angle C since they add to 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you can use \(\frac{c}{\sin(C)}=\frac{a}{\sin(A)}\) to find \(c\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o i c..thanks..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c\[c^{2} = a ^{2}+b ^{2}-2abcosC\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then i will get c..thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can use that as well, but it is generally easier to use the law of sines than the law of cosines

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get in one step \[c=\frac{a\sin(C)}{\sin(A)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o i c...ok
