Solving a Triangle, SSA, Example 1

[alonsodehermes]

actually, there's a mistake. there are two possibilities in 2:39, because sin(.5144) = sin(pi - .5144). this means there are two possible values for the angle G.

Thank you, It's starting to feel like your my teacher!!! Lol

What if the angle is larger than 90 degrees, and you still got SSA? I am sorta stuck.

okay...lets say we have a right triangle (FGH) F=90 degrees G=? H=? f=? g=4' h=2'3/4" what is G-H & f equal to?

That would only be necessary if he wasn't as fantastic a teacher as he is.

How did you convert .5144 to 30.96 degree ??? same as my proff, no full explanation

[BigPileOfWesley]

Wait, hold up...
I thought the law of sines said (a/sinA) = (b/sinB) and so forth... not (sinA/a) = (sinB/b) ... Did I miss something?
Just to clarify: Your videos are amazing and I use them as borderline gospel lol. But this definitely threw a wrench in what I was true in the world.

Thanks very much helped me with my online work when it didnt go into enough detail
