What proportion do you use to find the length of the third side triangle XYZ?
The answer depends on the information that you have: it could be the sine rule or the cosine rule.
Is it is necessary to be a right angle triangle to use sine rule?
No. Sine rule (and cosine rule) apply to all triangles in Euclidean space (plane geometry). A simplification occurs when there is a right angle because the sine of the right angle is 1 and the cosine is 0. Thus you get Pythagoras theorem for right triangles.
How are all three versions of the law of cosines correct?
It follows from the cyclical symmetry of the cosine rule.
CosA equals a2 plus c2 minus b2 by 2ac what is this formula?
This is known as the Cosine Rule.
The inverse of the cosine function?
Inverse of Cosine is 'ArcCos' or Cos^(-1) The reciprocal of Cosine is !/ Cosine = Secant.
