  1. Warm Up 1. What is the third angle measure in a triangle with angles measuring 65° and 43°? Find each value. Round trigonometric ratios to the nearest hundredth and angle measures to the nearest degree. 2. sin 73° 3. cos 18° 4. tan 82° 5. sin-1 (0.34) 6. cos-1 (0.63) 7. tan-1 (2.75) 72° 0.96 0.95 7.12 20° 51° 70°

  2. Objective Use the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines to solve triangles.

  3. In this lesson, you will learn to solve any triangle. To do so, you will need to calculate trigonometric ratios for angle measures up to 180°. You can use a calculator to find these values.

  4. Example 1: Finding Trigonometric Ratios for Obtuse Angles Use your calculator to find each trigonometric ratio. Round to the nearest hundredth. A. tan 103° B. cos 165° C. sin 93° tan 103°  –4.33 cos 165°  –0.97 sin 93°  1.00

  5. You can use the Law of Sines to solve a triangle if you are given • two angle measures and any side length (ASA or AAS) or • two side lengths and a non-included angle measure (SSA).

  6. Example 2A: Using the Law of Sines Find the measure. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. FG Law of Sines Substitute the given values. FG sin 39° = 40 sin 32° Cross Products Property Divide both sides by sin 39.

  7. Example 2B: Using the Law of Sines Find the measure. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. mQ Law of Sines Substitute the given values. Multiply both sides by 6. Use the inverse sine function to find mQ.

  8. Check It Out! Example 2b Find the measure. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. mL Law of Sines Substitute the given values. Cross Products Property 10 sin L = 6 sin 125° Use the inverse sine function to find mL.

  9. The Law of Sines cannot be used to solve every triangle. If you know two side lengths and the included angle measure or if you know all three side lengths, you cannot use the Law of Sines. Instead, you can apply the Law of Cosines.

  10. You can use the Law of Cosines to solve a triangle if you are given • two side lengths and the included angle measure (SAS) or • three side lengths (SSS).

  11. Example 3A: Using the Law of Cosines Find the measure. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. XZ XZ2 = XY2 + YZ2 – 2(XY)(YZ)cos Y Law of Cosines Substitute the given values. = 352 + 302 – 2(35)(30)cos 110° XZ2 2843.2423 Simplify. Find the square root of both sides. XZ 53.3

  12. Example 3B: Using the Law of Cosines Find the measure. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. mT RS2 = RT2 + ST2 – 2(RT)(ST)cos T Law of Cosines Substitute the given values. 72 = 132 + 112 – 2(13)(11)cos T 49 = 290 – 286 cosT Simplify. Subtract 290 both sides. –241 = –286 cosT

  13. Example 3B Continued Find the measure. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. mT –241 = –286 cosT Solve for cosT. Use the inverse cosine function to find mT.

  14. Check It Out! Example 3a Find the measure. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. DE DE2 = EF2 + DF2 – 2(EF)(DF)cos F Law of Cosines Substitute the given values. = 182 + 162 – 2(18)(16)cos 21° DE2 42.2577 Simplify. Find the square root of both sides. DE 6.5

  15. Helpful Hint Do not round your answer until the final step of the computation. If a problem has multiple steps, store the calculated answers to each part in your calculator.

  16. Lesson Quiz: Part I Use a calculator to find each trigonometric ratio. Round to the nearest hundredth. 1. tan 154° 2. cos 124° 3. sin 162° –0.49 –0.56 0.31

  17. Lesson Quiz: Part II Use ΔABC for Items 4–6. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree. 4. mB = 20°, mC = 31° and b = 210. Find a. 5. a = 16, b = 10, and mC = 110°. Find c. 6.a = 20, b = 15, and c = 8.3. Find mA. 477.2 21.6 115°
