Calculate another triangle




How did we calculate this triangle?

1. Calculate the third unknown inner angle

alpha = 84° 42' ; ; beta = 47° 36' ; ; ; ; alpha + beta + gamma = 180° ; ; ; ; gamma = 180° - alpha - beta = 180° - 84° 42' - 47° 36' = 47° 42' ; ;

2. By using the law of sines, we calculate unknown side a

c = 184 ; ; ; ; fraction{ a }{ c } = fraction{ sin( alpha ) }{ sin ( gamma ) } ; ; ; ; a = c * fraction{ sin( alpha ) }{ sin ( gamma ) } ; ; ; ; a = 184 * fraction{ sin(84° 42') }{ sin (47° 42') } = 247.71 ; ;

3. By using the law of sines, we calculate last unknown side b

fraction{ b }{ c } = fraction{ sin( beta ) }{ sin ( gamma ) } ; ; ; ; b = c * fraction{ sin( beta ) }{ sin ( gamma ) } ; ; ; ; b = 184 * fraction{ sin(47° 36') }{ sin (47° 42') } = 183.71 ; ;


Now we know the lengths of all three sides of the triangle and the triangle is uniquely determined. Next we calculate another its characteristics - same procedure as calculation of the triangle from the known three sides SSS.

a = 247.71 ; ; b = 183.71 ; ; c = 184 ; ;

4. The triangle circumference is the sum of the lengths of its three sides

p = a+b+c = 247.71+183.71+184 = 615.42 ; ;

5. Semiperimeter of the triangle

s = fraction{ o }{ 2 } = fraction{ 615.42 }{ 2 } = 307.71 ; ;

6. The triangle area using Heron's formula

T = sqrt{ s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) } ; ; T = sqrt{ 307.71 * (307.71-247.71)(307.71-183.71)(307.71-184) } ; ; T = sqrt{ 283209625.1 } = 16828.83 ; ;

7. Calculate the heights of the triangle from its area.

T = fraction{ a h _a }{ 2 } ; ; h _a = fraction{ 2 T }{ a } = fraction{ 2 * 16828.83 }{ 247.71 } = 135.88 ; ; h _b = fraction{ 2 T }{ b } = fraction{ 2 * 16828.83 }{ 183.71 } = 183.21 ; ; h _c = fraction{ 2 T }{ c } = fraction{ 2 * 16828.83 }{ 184 } = 182.92 ; ;

8. Calculation of the inner angles of the triangle using a Law of Cosines

a**2 = b**2+c**2 - 2bc cos( alpha ) ; ; alpha = arccos( fraction{ a**2-b**2-c**2 }{ 2bc } ) = arccos( fraction{ 247.71**2-183.71**2-184**2 }{ 2 * 183.71 * 184 } ) = 84° 42' ; ; beta = arccos( fraction{ b**2-a**2-c**2 }{ 2ac } ) = arccos( fraction{ 183.71**2-247.71**2-184**2 }{ 2 * 247.71 * 184 } ) = 47° 36' ; ; gamma = arccos( fraction{ c**2-a**2-b**2 }{ 2ba } ) = arccos( fraction{ 184**2-247.71**2-183.71**2 }{ 2 * 183.71 * 247.71 } ) = 47° 42' ; ;

9. Inradius

T = rs ; ; r = fraction{ T }{ s } = fraction{ 16828.83 }{ 307.71 } = 54.69 ; ;

10. Circumradius

R = fraction{ a }{ 2 * sin( alpha ) } = fraction{ 247.71 }{ 2 * sin 84° 42' } = 124.39 ; ;
