Today in Math

Today in math we learned about the law of sines. The law of sines is pretty much just a bunch of triangles that you use to solve for unknown parts that aren't given.
The Law of Sines is:

_a_=_b_=_c_
Sin A Sin B Sin C

You should first draw a triangle and then fill in the information given for what sides and angles you have, then you take the formula and fill in what information you have as well. Then you solve for the first part of the formula whith whatever information you were provided and once you use that information you can use it to solve for the second half of the formula. This will give you all of the angles and sides of the triangle.
