Using angle measures

Since corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional, the sine ratio is the same in any right triangle. This is true for any trigonometric value of an angle in a right triangle. The values for any angle measures can be found using a calculator.

Solving Right Triangle Problems

In ∆ ABC , m<B = 61°, c = 20, find b.

b = 17.5

Solving Right Triangle Problems

In ∆ ABC , m<B = 42°, c = 10, find b.

b = 6.7

Solving Right Triangle Problems

In ∆ ABC , m<A = 39°, b = 20, find a.

a = 7.3
