Find the lengths of the missing sides if side a is opposite angle A, side b is opposite angle B, and side c is the hypotenuse.
sin(B) = 1/sqrt(6), a = 4
-------------
It's a right triangle.
B = ~ 22.095 degs
A = 90 - B = 65.9
----
sin(A) = 0.9129
===================
a/sin(A) = b/sin(B)
b = a*sin(B)/sin(A)
-------
c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
