in the oblique triangle ABC; AB = 30; AC = 15 and angle B = degrees
20

Oblique triangle  ABC; AB = 30; AC = 15 and angle B = 20 degrees.

type out the two equations substituting the numbers from the diagram.

  • First, type out the Law of Sines set of relationships.
  • Next, type out the most appropriate version to use the Law of Cosines for this solution.
  • make a prediction of which method will be easier to use in finding a solution and why you think that is the case.
  • solve for a using both methods (show step by step work)
