Sine rule

What is the sine rule?

  • The sine rule is used in non right-angled triangles

    • It allows us to find missing side lengths or angles

  • It states that for any triangle with angles A, B and C

fraction numerator a over denominator sin space A end fraction equals fraction numerator b over denominator sin space B end fraction equals fraction numerator c over denominator sin space C end fraction

  • Where

    • a is the side opposite angle A

    • b is the side opposite angle B

    • c is the side opposite angle C

Non Right-Angled Triangle labelled with angles A, B and C and opposite corresponding sides a, b and c.

How do I use the sine rule to find missing lengths?

  • Use the sine rule

    • when you have opposite pairs of sides and angles in the question

      • a and A, or b and B, or c and C

  • Start by labelling your triangle with the angles and sides

    • Angles have upper case letters

    • Sides opposite the angles have the equivalent lower case letter

  • To find a missing length, substitute numbers into the formula

    fraction numerator a over denominator sin space A end fraction equals fraction numerator b over denominator sin space B end fraction equals fraction numerator c over denominator sin space C end fraction

    • You only need to have two parts equal to each other (not all three)

      • Then solve to find the side you need

How do I use the sine rule to find missing angles?

  • To find a missing angle, it is easier to rearrange the formula first by flipping each part
