Thread: Trigonometry " The Ambiguous Case".

I solved for one triangle already but I don't know how to solve the other triangle. Please help me guys..
So, This is the problem, solve the triangle

1. A = 35°
a = 5
b = 8

So it's gonna be like this right?

- angle A is Acute
a < b
a__bsinA
5__8sin35°
5>4.59
therefore two triangles.

So This is [COLOR="rgb(46, 139, 87)"]my answer for the 1st triangle.[/COLOR]

B = 66.60°
c = 8.54
C = 78.4°

CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG..
Can anyone teach me how to solve for the other triangle? :|

You have to use the Sine rule (what you obviously did)

1. From .

2. Since

3. You now can calculate the dimensions of the 2nd triangle.
