\n" ); document.write( "The issue is that the less than sign needs space on both sides.\r

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It helps to draw out what we know so far.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Convention is to have the uppercase letters represent angles, while the lowercase letters are side lengths.
\n" ); document.write( "Angle A is opposite side 'a'
\n" ); document.write( "Angle B is opposite side 'b'
\n" ); document.write( "Angle C is opposite side 'c'\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Use the law of sines to determine side b
\n" ); document.write( "sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b
\n" ); document.write( "b*sin(A) = a*sin(B) .... cross multiply
\n" ); document.write( "b = a*sin(B)/sin(A) .... divide both sides by sin(A)
\n" ); document.write( "b = 10*sin(30)/sin(45)
\n" ); document.write( "b = 7.07106781186548 approximately
\n" ); document.write( "Round that however your teacher instructs.
\n" ); document.write( "Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Extra info:
\n" ); document.write( "If you want to find side c, then you'll need to find angle C first.
\n" ); document.write( "Use the fact that the interior angles of a triangle add to 180, so A+B+C = 180
