Learn to determine when there is 1, 2 or no triangle

👉 Learn how to determine if a given SSA triangle has 1, 2 or no possible triangles. Given two adjacent side lengths and an angle opposite one of them (SSA or ASS), then there are 3 possible cases: there can be 1 solution, 2 solutions, and no solution.

Using the law of sines, we can obtain the value of the angle opposite the second given side length.
Case 1: If the product of the sine of the given angle and the given side adjacent to the given angle is greater than the given side opposite the given angle, then there is no possible solution satisfying the given values.
Case 2: If the obtained angle is greater than the given angle, then there are 2 possible solutions satisfying the given values.
Case 3: If the obtained angle is less than the given angle, then there is only 1 possible solution satisfying the given values.

this man has carried so many of us struggling trig students

what class grade do you teach? i’m doing this right now in grade 11 math and i have a test tomorrow and i have no idea how to do this but you’ve helped me before with different math units so i think you’ll help me again thank you!

Here in India, we are not allowed to use calculator, not even for trignometric functions/ logs etc. We figure it out all in our heads. How cool is that? :)
