Example Question #21 : Use The Laws Of Cosines And Sines

Find the length of the missing side, .

Possible Answers:

29.12

28.54

20.57

25.53

Correct answer:

25.53

Explanation:

First, use the Law of Sines to find the measurement of angle

$\frac{12}{\sin 21}=\frac{16}{\sin B}$

$12\sin B = 5.73$

$\sin B=0.48$

B= 28.69

Recall that all the angles in a triangle need to add up to 180 degrees.

21+28.69+A=180

A=130.31

Now, use the Law of Sines again to find the length of .

$\frac{d}{\sin 130.31}=\frac{12}{\sin 21}$

$d \sin 21= 9.15$

d=25.53
