1 Chapter 6 Investigating Non-Right Triangles as Models for Problems: 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law

2 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law Goals for Today: Learn one of the ways that we can find unknown sides and angles in a non-right angle triangle

3 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law Minds On: Sine Law Investigation textbook p.546 I will handout graph paper and protractors What conclusion do you draw?

4 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law If we have a non-right angle triangle, we can’t use the primary trig ratios to find an unknown side or angle In this case*, we can use the Sine Law to solve for an unknown angle or side if we are given: 2 sides and one angle across from a known side, or 2 angles and any side *The Sine law will work in right angle triangles

5 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law The Sine Law is: use this if solving for a side The small letters represent sides The large letters represent angles You work with two out of the three ratios

6 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law The Sine Law is also: use this if solving for The small letters represent sides The large letters represent angles You work with two out of the three ratios

7 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law – Given 2 Sides and an Angle Across from a Known Side A C B 29.5cm 44° 37.1cm Ex. 1 Find angle C

8 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law – Given 2 Sides and an Angle Across from a Known Side A C B 29.5cm 44° 37.1cm Ex. 1 Find angle C Angle B is across from a known side...

9 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law – Given 2 Sides and an Angle Across from a Known Side Ex. 1. Find angle C in triangle ABC As with similar triangles, we need 3 out of 4 to be able to find the missing side or angle

10 6.3 Investigating the Sine Law – Given 2 Sides and an Angle Across from a Known Side Ex. 1. Find angle C in triangle ABC As with similar triangles, we need 3 out of 4 to be able to find the missing side or angle
