V. Reveal the formula for and explain when to use the Law of Sines and have students apply
the law to a problem involving a non-right triangle.
VI. Homework will include non-right triangles with missing sides and angles. Students will
have to use the Law of Sines to find the missing measurements.
Resources and Materials: Activity Sheet, Formula sheet, Word Problem Sheet, Homework
Sheet, Graphing Calculator
Follow-up: Students will be given problems with non-right triangles and have to find missing
lengths and angles.
Modifications: Pair lower-level learners with higher-level learners.
CCSSM: HS.G-SRT.9- (+) Prove the Law of Sines and Cosines and use them to solve problems.

1.)
In
, m<B = 80,
m<C = 34 and a = 16.
Find the length of b to the nearest
tenth.
2.)
In
, m<R = 105, r = 12,
and t =10. Find the m<S, to the nearest
degree.
3.)
Points A & B are on one side of a river, 100'
apart, with C on the opposite side. The
angles A and B measure 70 and 60
respectively. What is the distance from
point A to point C, to the nearest foot?
