Hi my name is Ryley and i well be your scribe for today.


Ambiguous Case Triangles

Today im going to show you how to solve an Ambiguous Triangle using sine law.


First thing your going to want to do is draw out the angle
you are given in this case its 30 degrees.


next your going to want to measure out the b length in this case its 10 cm

and lastly to make it a triangle take the a value and connect it with the c value so that it lines up.



to solve for the other angles you now need to use sine law

here i am solving for SinB



once you have 2 of the angles you can subtract them from 180 degrees to get your last angle



now with the last angle you can get the last side using sin law


and there you go the triangle is solved

A=30 degrees
B=90 degrees
C=60 degrees
a=5cm
b=10cm
c=8.66cm

hope this helped you learn more about Ambiguous Triangles
