The sine of an angle in the third quadrant (195°) is negative, and sine is also negative in the fourth quadrant. The angle with the same sine in the fourth quadrant is 360° - 195° = 165°.

Use the Law of Cosines for triangles without right angles: c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos(C). Substitute known values for calculation. Alternatively, use the Law of Sines if all angles and opposing side lengths are known to establish ratios.

For point (15, -3), first find r = √(15² + (-3)²). Then, sinθ = -3/r, cosθ = 15/r, and tanθ = -3/15. Calculate these to get the exact trigonometric ratios.

The angle 330° is in the fourth quadrant where cosine is positive. The reference angle is 360° - 330° = 30°. So, cos(330°) = cos(30°) = √3/2.

In Quadrant 4, the cosine of an angle is positive while the sine and tangent are negative.

Rearrange the equation to get sin(θ) = -3/2, which has no solutions in the real number system since the sine function only outputs values between -1 and 1. Thus, there are no solutions in the given interval.

The angle can be determined using the tangent function: tan(θ) = -7/2. Calculate the arctan(-7/2) to find the reference angle, then determine the angle position within the fourth quadrant.

Using cos⁻¹(2/5), θ = 66° is obtained in the first quadrant. Cosine is also positive in the fourth quadrant, so the second angle is θ = 360° - 66° = 294°.

In an SSA configuration, calculate possible angles using the Law of Sines. If one angle leads to realistic triangle measures and the other doesn't (e.g., sum of angles > 180°), only one triangle is possible. For example, with a = 5.1 cm, c = 3.9 cm, and ∠A = 41°, only one valid triangle exists based on calculated constraints.

To find the reference angle for 234°, subtract 180° from 234° because the angle lies in the third quadrant, which gives 54°. This is because reference angles are always measured with respect to the x-axis.
