    Topic: Oblique Triangles

    Sub-Topic: The Law of Sine and Cosine and Its Application

    OBJECTIVES
    a. Illustrate the laws of sine and cosine.
    b. Solve problems involving oblique triangles.
    c. Show mastery in applying the laws of sine and cosine in solving
    problems oblique triangles.

    Things to Remember:

    The laws of sines states that a side divided by the sine of the angle opposite it
    is equal to any other side divided by the sine of the opposite angle and the laws of
    cosines states that the square of the length of one side is equal to the sum of the
    squares of the other two sides minus the product of twice the two sides and the cosine
    of the angle between them. These laws are essential in the solution of oblique
    triangles. Illustrating a problem through a diagrams would help connect the problem
    with easy understanding.

    Let’s Do This!

    Read the problem and analyze the partial solution presented below.
    Then answer the questions follows.
    Problem #1:
    Tony and Obet went to Tagaytay Oval to fly a kite. Tony’s kite has
    1750ft. of string at an angle of 75 0. Obet notes that the angle
    formed by the kite and the flier is 1020. How far is Obet from the
    kite? Obet from Tony?
    a = 1728.53ft.
    (Obet from the kite)

    m/ A + m/ B + m/ C = 1800
    750 + m/ B + 1020 = 1800
    m/ B = 1800 - 1770
    m/ B = 30

    (Obet from Tony)


    Problem #2:
    Danna wants to feed her dogs which are located at different
    parts of the house as shown below. Bantay is 2.5ft away from kisig and
    Kisig is 4.5ft. away from Puti. How far is Kisig from the food?

    Let’s Do More!
    Challenge Yourself!

    Solve the problem.


    Maine’s handheld computer can send and receive e – mails if it
    is within 40miles of a transmission tower. On a trip Maine passed the
    transmission tower on Highway 7 for 32 miles, and turns 970 onto
    Coastal road and drive another 19 miles.
    a. Is Maine close enough to the transmission tower to be able to send
    and receive e – mails? Explain your reasoning.
    b. If Maine is within range of the tower, how much farther can she drive
    on Coastal road before she is out of range? If she is out of range and
    drive back toward Highway 7, how far will she travels before she is
    back in range?
