  1. Chapter 7, Lesson 2 The Law of Sines

  2. If none of the angles of a triangle is a right angle, the triangle is called oblique. All angles are acute Two acute angles, one obtuse angle

  3. To solve an oblique triangle means to find the lengths of its sides and the measurements of its angles.

  4. FOUR CASES CASE 1: One side and two angles are known (SAA or ASA). CASE 2: Two sides and the angle opposite one of them are known (SSA). CASE 3: Two sides and the included angle are known (SAS). CASE 4: Three sides are known (SSS).

  5. A S A ASA S A A SAA CASE 1: ASA or SAA

  6. S A S CASE 2: SSA

  7. S A S CASE 3: SAS

  8. S S S CASE 4: SSS

  9. The Law of Sines is used to solve triangles in which Case 1 or 2 holds. That is, the Law of Sines is used to solve SAA, ASA or SSA triangles.
