URGENTLY NEED ASSISTANCE!! Pleeeeaassseeee!!!! When solving for measures of angles using the Law of Sines, it is sometimes possible to have an ambiguous case. Why does the ambiguous case arise? When might the ambiguous case occur?

Hmm.. that kinda confuses me.. do you happen to know a version of the answer in your own words that I could understand?

hartnn (hartnn):

Yes, Ambiguous cases happens when we are given \(\huge 2~ S\)ides and \(\huge 1 \) angle of a triangle, which is NOT an included angle between the 2 sides.

hartnn (hartnn):

in such a case, we can find \(\huge 2 \) different triangles satisfying the given sides and angle.

|dw:1402334819332:dw| Ambiguity will arise when we will be given a,b, and A
