You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'll leave you the sketch, hopefully we can follow together.
\n" ); document.write( "In the triangle ABC, given:
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=45%5Eo\"; \"B=60%5Eo\"; \"C=75%5Eo\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"AB=1unit\"
\n" ); document.write( "Pardon me for the illustration below is just for reference --> NOT TO SCALE. So it will be easy for us to go along.
\n" ); document.write( " ---> BLUE circle>>>\"A=45%5Eo\"; GREEN Circle>>> \"B=60%5Eo\"; RED Circle>>> \"C=75%5Eo\". Also,BLUE LINE =\"AC\"; GREEN LINE=\"AB\"; RED LINE=\"BC\"\r
