1
Q
What is the cosine rule and when do you use it?
what is a variation of the cosine rule and when do you use it?
A
-Angle sandwich
a^2=b^2+c^-2bcCOSA
-When missing angle
COSA=b^2+c^2-a^2/2bc
2
Q
What is the sine rule and when can it be used?
A
- Used for opposite lengths and opposite sides.
- a/sina = b/sinb = c/sinc
