What to enter
InputMeaning and units
Side a (length)Enter side a in length; use the same basis as the other measurements.
A (degree)Enter a in degree; use the same basis as the other measurements.
B (degree)Enter b in degree; use the same basis as the other measurements.

Understanding your result

Read b (length), c (length) in the units and model stated on this page. The formula C=180-A-B · b=a*sin(B*pi/180)/sin(A*pi/180) · c=a*sin(C*pi/180)/sin(A*pi/180) defines the relationship; measurement accuracy and model applicability are separate from numerical precision.

Common mistakes

  • Mixing input units or changing the physical meaning of a variable without changing the model.

Check your calculation

  • Use the worked example as a known reference case, then change one input at a time and check the direction and units of the response.
