Trigonometry - The Law of Sines - Word Problems

The Law of Sines - Word Problems

This lesson looks at how to apply the law of sines to a variety of word problems. When tackling these problems, here are a few steps to follow as a means of organizing your thoughts:
  1. Read through the question from start to finish.
  2. Pick out the important parts of the questions (I like to highlight or underline these)
  3. Build and label your diagram.
  4. Write out and fill in any given information into the Sine Law
  5. Choose two ratios to set equivalent to each other to solve for one unknown value.
