I came up with this tricky test question challenge for my precalculus students. Start with an obtuse triangle, give students the length of all three sides and one of the acute angles. Ask the students to find the measure of the obtuse angle. Now many students will proceed by using the Law of Sine because the formula is shorter compared to the Law of Cosine. But because the range of the inverse sine function is _________, we will have to be extra careful with we use the Law of Sine!

An alternative is to indirectly use the law of sines on this one, to find the angle that wasn't asked for. Then use the 180 degree total interior angle rule, to find the angle we want to know. A triangle always has at least two acute angles, for which the sine rule will work without needing to think about the multivalued nature of inverse sine. Once you find both acute angles, it's trivial to find the remaining one.

As a teacher and tutor, I'd have to say I don't think that is a good idea. You can't always use the Law of Cosines. Sometimes, you have no choice but to use Law of Sines (the opposite is also true). For example, if you are given only two angles and one side, you can't use the Law of Cosines. If you are given only three sides, you can not use the Law of Sines. If you aren't given a pair of an angle and the side opposite that angle (or enough information to find such a pair), you can't use the Laws of Sines. Also, if the problem specifically asks you to find ALL possible triangles, you really need to understand, and actually USE the fact, that the inverse functions are multivalued. This is easier to do with sine, because the Law of Sines only gives you positive numbers and sine is positive in BOTH Q1 and Q2. The cosine is not, so you have to be very careful to not drop signs in those calculations, and a lot of students, in my experience, do just that.

If you append a line segment CD parallel to AC such that it forms the base of an isoceles triangle BDC, we see that the Law of Sines is for the angle between the new far side and the base of the isoceles. Given that base angles for the I.T are the same, we can subtract that from 180 by vertical anglrs to get the initial angle This can be proven generally that law of sines for obtuse angles still holds up so basically c = 180° - (law of sines angle) in general as you said

I believe the absolute simplest way to understand what is going on is by scetching a single complete sine wave. Since you want the inverse sine, you mark the value you use to find the angle on the y-axis. Now draw a parallel through this value to the x-axis to figure out where it intersects the sine wave and suddenly you will see: there are 2 such intersection points. Thus you need to be carefull which one to use.

Sine rule is easier to compute than cosine rule, so it is best to use and calculate the angle, with an awareness that sin(180-A) = sin(A) so you have to choose between A or 180-A. Obtuse angles are only applicable to those opposite to the longest side and one that is greater in length than the hypotenuse of the smaller sides. If this extra attention is too much to ask for relative to using cosine rule, than as the video suggests, just use the cosine rule.

If the question says Angle C > 90 degree (In short Obtuse Angle) and we know Range of Inverse Sin Rule is [pi/2 , -pi/2], then we can easily find the Angle B as We know Angle B < Angle C, Therefore Angle B can be applicable to find it in LOS, after that then Do 180 - Angle B - Angle A = Angle C, You will get your answer still.

You could have used the law of sines, just remember if there is a equation sinx = a then x = a + 2kpi or x = pi-a + 2kpi where k is an integer. That means the next solition is 180 degrees - 66.2 degrees which gives us 113.8 degrees. Now we have to choose one of these and obviously since the C angle is bigger than 90 degrees we choose 113.8 degrees.

What I did was law of sines for A and B to get B then I used 180=A+B+C to get C because: 1. I know that all the inverse trig fns are good for acute angles. 2. There are at least 2 acute angles in a triangle 3. The acute angles are opposite the smallest sides of the triangle 4. I’m too lazy to do an unnecessary law of cos calculation

The problem is that taking arcsin or arccos from both sides of the equation is not equivalent. For instance, if sin(x) = k then x≠arcsin(k). Instead x = (-1)^n * arcsin(k) + pi * n (n is any integer) (In this particular case we choose n = 1, resulting pi - arcsin(k) ) As well: cos(x) = k then x = ±arccos(k) + 2pi * n (n is any integer) In russian schools we are taught to be as general as possible

Quick reminder that I tell my students, longer side is always opposite to bigger angle, smaller side to smaller angle, etc. They would have realized that 66, can’t be correct because then, angle B is bigger than 66. Of course, that still ask them to have the knowledge that ambiguous cases exists. But, whenever possible, use the cosine law to find the largest angle (using the side/angle relationship) and you will avoid the problem, if there is only a unique solution.

Everytime we use the law of sines to calculate an angle, we have to verify the possibility of a second answer. It's mandatory. We then must determine if this second angle is valid or not. Say we are given angle A and sides a and b so we can calculate angle B. Afer proceeding with the law of sines, this answer, say B1, has to be used to find B2 = 180º - B1. Then we have to calculate B2 + A. If the result is less than 180º, this second angle B2 is valid and we will get two possible triangles. However, if this sum is > 180º, the second triangle does not exist and B2 is discarted.

I can be wrong but I do remember a rule from my student past. If we solve an equation x^3 + p*x + q = 0 we must take some specific values of cbrt(-q/2 + sqrt(...)) and cbrt(-q/2 - sqrt(...)) that satisfy the condition cbrt(-q/2 + sqrt(...)) * cbrt(-q/2 - sqrt(...)) = -p/3. It will be obvious if we put x = cbrt(-q/2 + sqrt(...)) + cbrt(-q/2 - sqrt(...)) into x^3 + p*x + q = 0. This product of the cube roots should make some parts "annihilate". This one of the ways to prove this formula. We were shown this method on the physics lessons.

Let a = cbrt(-q/2 + sqrt(...)) b = cbrt(-q/2 - sqrt(...)) and a*b = -p/3 then x = a + b so x^3 + p*x + q = 0 => (a + b)^3 + p*(a + b) + q = 0 => a^3 + 3*a*b*(a + b) + b^3 + p*(a + b) + q = 0 => a^3 - p*(a + b) + b^3 + p*(a + b) + q = 0 => a^3+ b^3 +q = 0 => (-q/2 + sqrt(...)) + (-q/2 - sqrt(...)) + q = 0 => -q + q = 0 => 0 = 0 We can reverse these steps so we get the aforementioned formula.

Am I the only one who went with a basic strategy of splitting the triangle into right-angle triangles and calculate the angle from there? 😅 Given the triangle ABC whose AB = 3.9, BC = 3, CA = 5.8, m∠A = 28.25, I've solved for m∠B. I've first calculated the height of it using: - sin(28.25) = 3.9 / h - h = (3.9)(sin(28.25) - h ≈ 1.846 I've then calculated the angle on the right-side triangle and left-side triangle by considering height as the adjacent side and both of AB and BC as the tangent sides, and solving for θ using cosine: - Right-side -> θ = arccos(h / AB) = arccos(h / 3.9) = 61.75° - Left-side -> θ = arccos(h / BC) = arccos(h / 3) = 52.025 ≈ 52.03° Summing angles of both sides would then return m∠B, which is going to be equal to 113.77514644°, or 113.78° for short.

One of the properties of functions with inverses is that they have to be bijective, but sin is only bijective in a certain range (-pi/2 to pi/2), so as a result the inverse has the same range. Sin is also bijective at an infinite number of places but we chose between +-pi/2 cos it contains the origin- so is nice.

because if you scetch a complete sine wave and try to do the inverse operation by drawing a parallel to the x axis through the sine value and intersecting it with the curve you will see: there are 2 such intersection points. So which one is the correct one? Both of them are correct, as the sin of (in this case 66.2° and 113.8°) both those intersection points have the same value. ( sin(66.2) is equal to sin(113.8) ) In other words, as someone has already pointed out: the sin function IS a function, but the inverse is not. Edit: Something similar is true for the cos function. Scetch it and you will see that cos(x) is equal to cos(-x).

I get that it's important but it's just tedious and annoying :p I think it doesn't really make sense to students until they've learned how to find all solutions for sin(x) = something which usually occurs in a higher level course

If you use the Law of Sines on angles A and B and subtract both from 180 degrees it also works. Surely this is a simpler method? Whoops! Just noticed that, unsurprisingly, I am not the only one to suggest this. I enjoy your videos, though, even if I can only understand some of them. P.S. The Law of Sines is a piece of cake on a slide-rule, as are all proportions.

The simple rule is that you need to use law of sines to find the smallest angle first. Or law of cosines to find the biggest angle first.

why does angle A equels to 28.25 degrees? We must chek it using ToC. And... it's wrong. Then, we can't use this or one of sides. Or the problem is incorrect

Good day to you, Thank you for showing the SSA (ambiguous) case and also in this case the difference in application between the sine and cosine rule (advantage -disadvantage) in your presentation; at last it has become clear to me the 2 possibilities of triangles (obtuse angle C or acute angle C; supplementary angles)!

I have a mysterious query in my mind that "We can make every negative value positive by adding it to 0." (like -2+0 = 2) because 0 is greater than any negative value in number line and its rule in addition that we take sign of greater value with answer .... am I right ??

No need to give that C° > 90° in the question. We can understand if an angle is bigger or smaller than 90° by using law of cosine. In an ABC triangle, where edges are a-b-c; a² + b² - 2abcosC° = c². In this equation; If C° = 90° ⇒ cosC° = 0 ⇒ a² + b² = c²; If C° < 90° ⇒ cosC° > 0 ⇒ a² + b² > c²; If C° > 90° ⇒ cosC° < 0 ⇒ a² + b² < c². In this case, let's calculate the values and analyze. Firstly, [3²+(3,9)²] ? (5,8)² then, (9+15,21) ? 33.64 finally, 24,21 < 33.64. Which means C° > 90. We can solve this question with that information right now. We know that C° > 90° even if arcsin gives us 66.2°. And since we know that sina° = sinb° if a°+b° = 180°, we can subtract 66.2° from 180° and get our answer 113.8°. These are the basic informations and reasonings a precalculus student should be capable.
