Law of Sines

Given two sides and a missing sin; such as that the formula look like this:

sin(k′ )/(xy′ ) = sin(u′ )/(dy′ )

Where: k’ = known sin, xy’ = known side, u’ unknown sin, dy’ known side, the equation
solves as:

sin(k′ ) ∗ dy′ /xy′ = sin(u′ )

Then, the value sin(u′ ) is input into de sin − 1(sin(u′ )) so that it gives the value in
degrees.

 Given sin(x) sides and a side, such as that the formula look like this:

sin(k′ )/(xy′ ) = sin(k′′ )/(u′ )

Where: k’ = known sin, k’’ second known sin, xy’ known side, u’ unknown side.

It solves as:

sin(k′′ ) ∗ xy′ /sin(k′ ) = u′

Law of cosines

c2 = a2 + b2 − 2ab(cosθ)

To get c, a and b you must look at the given angles and realize it. C is noticed by
looking at the side that is contrary to the angle given, then a and b become trivial (their
order doesn’t matter).

unknownside = [sqrt](k′ )2 + (k′′ )2 − 2ab(cosθ)

(cosθ) = k′ − (k′′ + k′′′ )/ − 2(k′′ + k′′′ )

Trig identities
(cosθ) = (cosθ + 2pi) = (cos − θ)
sin(θ) = sin(θ + 2pi) = sin(pi − θ)

Trigonometry 2
 sin(−180 − θ) = sin(θ)

pi − θ + 2pi/2 = x

How to calculate the second interval of a

given function; of the type: cos(x) and
sin(x).

First solve for the given value such as the equation looks like this:

value  =  cos ( f requency

2π
x)

Then evaluate the “value” like this: cos−1 (value), this will be called A1. Now let’s
obtain the “second interval”, which we’ll call A2, like this:

2π − cos−1 (value)

This will give us A2, which we’ll evaluate at the original function to obtain the value x
and solve for the second interval. NOTE: A2 SHOULD BE BETWEEN A1 AND 2PI
(DEP. ON THE PROBLEM).

Now let’s solve for x as A2.

2π
f requency
x = A2 , x = A2 f requency
2π

And then we solve for the value x, at the second interval.
