I have a right triangle with C = 90 deg, A = 50 deg and B = 40 deg angles.
\n" ); document.write( "The length of leg \"a\" is 1.5748\" runs between the 90 deg and 40 deg angles
\n" ); document.write( "and is opposite angle A.
\n" ); document.write( "What are the lengths of:
\n" ); document.write( "Leg \"b\" between the 90 deg and 50 deg angles and is opposite B?
\n" ); document.write( "Leg \"c\" between the 50 deg and 40 deg angles, the hypotenuse?
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Using Law of Sines:
\n" ); document.write( "b/sin(40) = 1.5748/sin(50)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "b = [sin(40)/sin(50)]*1.5748 = 1.3214
\n" ); document.write( "====================
\n" ); document.write( "c = sqrt[a^2 + b^2]
\n" ); document.write( "=========================
