Sin B =, which gives B. a C= i8o-(A + B), which gives C c=a. which gives e. sm A v. a, b, given, to find A,, C. There are many formulas suitable for finding the functions of the angles when the sides are given; for example, sin A=, -Vs(s-a) (s-b) (s- ), which gives A. B and C may be found by the same formula, or by the method of Case Hi. When all the sides are given, we may also find the angles by dividing the given triangle into two by a perpendicular from the vertex on the base, thus: Let ABC be the triangle, BD a perpendicular from B on AC. Then BD2 = AB2-AD2 = BC2-CD2. TM.'. c-x or CD=r--------=. 2C 2C We have now all the necessary data for solving the two right-angled triangles ABD and BDC, for two sides are given, thus: andB=i8o-(A + C). When two sides and an included angle are given, it is best to work out the other angles by the formulae--tan (B + C) = tan In this way we get B + C and B--C, from which and C may be found. Certain interesting identities may be proved from the formulae for oblique triangles, and whenever an identity is required to be proved, it must be understood that the formulae for oblique triangles only is to be used, unless it is stated that the triangle in question is to be taken as right-angled. In oblique-angled triangles, sin C, instead of being unity, _C sin A_f sin B b We conclude this part with an example which has been taken from examination papers on oblique and other triangles. Ex. 8. In any triangle, sin A--sin B is less than sin As any two sides...
