Now that we have a mathing pair of a side and angle, we an use the Law of Sines. a B sin A = or Now find the two possibilities for m C using the triangle sum: or Sine is the shortest side, it must be opposite the smallest angle. So m C =. m A=, m B =, m C = 6.7, a =, b=, = Appliation Problems. Draw a piture!. Use the Law of Cosines to solve for what is asked in the problem.
