The Sine Rule
In trigonometry ratio, we use a right-angled triangle to define the ratio.
QUESTION???
What if the triangle given is not in a right-angled form?
The basic trigonometry ratio SOH CAH TOA can not be used to find the unknown sides or angles.
Supposed we have an acute triangle or an obtuse triangle as given below:
How do we calculate the length of the unknown side or angle? We will use the formula that we are going to call as THE SINE RULE and THE COSINE RULE.
This last two weeks of year 9, we will end up our sub topic only until THE SINE RULE.
opposite hypotenuse
adjacent
Based on the given angle marked , we conclude the sides as adjacent, opposite and hypotenuse
acute obtuse
All three angles in vertices are less than 90o
One angle in one vertex is greater than 90o

Remember how to labelling the triangle.
After watching the video, label the triangle PQR below:
Proving the sine rule:
1. Proof by using equation algebra and basic ratio trigonometry: After watching the video, prove by yourself for triangle KLM below with perpendicular height LX :
