If you have two other angles, then add up those 2 and subtract that from 180. if you have all 3 sides then use the law of cosines: a squared = b squared + c squared - 2bc (cos A) If you have one angle and the 2 included sides, use the law of cosines as well. if you have an angle and the length of its opposite side, and the side opposite to the angle you want, then use the law of sines: sin A/ a = sin B/ b if you have the angle and the length of its opposite side and another angle, use the law of sines to figure out the unwanted angle anyway and then follow situation 1.

Is this statement true or falseTo solve a triangle, you find all of its unknown side lengths and angle measures?
true
What is the measure of the unknown angle?
you add them then subtract by 180 to find the unknown angle
What is the process you would use to find the measurement of a missing angle if you knew measurements of two out of the three angles?
If it's a triangle then: 180-sum of known angles = unknown angle
How do you find out if a triangle is a right triangle?
if the triangle has one right angle in it
How do you find the measure of an angle in a triangle when the measures of the two other angles are known?
Well the three angles in a triangle all add up to 180° so if you add the two known angles and take it away from 180 you'll get your unknown angle.
How do the properties of an isosceles triangle an equilateral triangle and a right triangle how you find the measure of unknown angles?
It works out as: 180 minus the 2 known angles = unknown angle
What two geometric principles permit you to find an unknown angle or an unknown side in a right triangle?
Trigonometry and Pythagoras' theorem
How do you find the missing angle of a triangle if you are given two of the angles?
180 minus two known angles = unknown angle
Is this statement true or falseTo solve a triangle, you find all of its unknown side lengths and angle measures?
true
Who uses cotangent?
The cotangent is used when you want to find an unknown angle in a right angled triangle when two sides (not the hypotenuse) and the included right angle are known.
What is the measure of the unknown angle?
you add them then subtract by 180 to find the unknown angle
How do you find an unknown angle of a triangle without having a length of one of the sides using sohcahtoa?
If you have the length of two of the sides and one other angle you can use the law of sines.
What is the process you would use to find the measurement of a missing angle if you knew measurements of two out of the three angles?
If it's a triangle then: 180-sum of known angles = unknown angle
How do you find the angle of a an right triangle?
The 90 degree angle in a right angle triangle is opposite its hypotenuse.
How do you find out if a triangle is a right triangle?
if the triangle has one right angle in it
How do you find the measure of an angle in a triangle when the measures of the two other angles are known?
Well the three angles in a triangle all add up to 180° so if you add the two known angles and take it away from 180 you'll get your unknown angle.
How do you find the angle of a triangle within a circle segment?
To find the angle of a triangle within a circle segment, you first need to determine the central angle of the circle segment. Then, you can use the properties of triangles inscribed in circles to find the angle. The angle of the triangle within the circle segment will be half the measure of the central angle.
