Oblique Triangles

Three acute angles


Two acute angles and one obtuse

𝐴 + 𝐵 + 𝐶 = 180°

Note: remember that the Pythagorean theorem and SOHCAHTOA can only be used if there is a
right angle

Solving a triangle: given three pieces of the triangle, find the missing three.

Notes: Section 10.2 The Law of Cosines


Playposit Video Law of Cosines
Case 3 and 4 -> use the law of cosines given below to solve the triangle

𝑐2 =𝑎2+𝑏2−2𝑎𝑏cos𝐶

𝑎2 =𝑏2+𝑐2−2𝑏𝑐cos𝐴

𝑏2 =𝑎2+𝑐2−2𝑎𝑐cos𝐵
Case 3

Two sides and one angle (NOT associated)

1. Solve the triangle given 𝐵 = 75°, = 2, 𝑐 = 6.

2. Solve the triangle given 𝑐 = 1, 𝑏 = 4, 𝐴 = 50°.

Case 4

Three sides -> one triangle or no triangle

3. Solve the triangle given 𝑎 = 3, 𝑏 = 4, 𝑐 = 6.
