Calculate another triangle




How did we calculate this triangle?

1. Input data entered: side a, b and c.

a = 96 ; ; b = 98 ; ; c = 35 ; ;


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 = 96 ; ; b = 98 ; ; c = 35 ; ; : Nr. 1

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

p = a+b+c = 96+98+35 = 229 ; ;

3. Semiperimeter of the triangle

s = fraction{ o }{ 2 } = fraction{ 229 }{ 2 } = 114.5 ; ;

4. The triangle area using Heron's formula

T = sqrt{ s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) } ; ; T = sqrt{ 114.5 * (114.5-96)(114.5-98)(114.5-35) } ; ; T = sqrt{ 2778614.44 } = 1666.92 ; ;

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

T = fraction{ a h _a }{ 2 } ; ; h _a = fraction{ 2 T }{ a } = fraction{ 2 * 1666.92 }{ 96 } = 34.73 ; ; h _b = fraction{ 2 T }{ b } = fraction{ 2 * 1666.92 }{ 98 } = 34.02 ; ; h _c = fraction{ 2 T }{ c } = fraction{ 2 * 1666.92 }{ 35 } = 95.25 ; ;

6. 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{ 96**2-98**2-35**2 }{ 2 * 98 * 35 } ) = 76° 24'2" ; ; beta = arccos( fraction{ b**2-a**2-c**2 }{ 2ac } ) = arccos( fraction{ 98**2-96**2-35**2 }{ 2 * 96 * 35 } ) = 82° 50'42" ; ; gamma = arccos( fraction{ c**2-a**2-b**2 }{ 2ba } ) = arccos( fraction{ 35**2-96**2-98**2 }{ 2 * 98 * 96 } ) = 20° 45'16" ; ;

7. Inradius

T = rs ; ; r = fraction{ T }{ s } = fraction{ 1666.92 }{ 114.5 } = 14.56 ; ;

8. Circumradius

R = fraction{ a }{ 2 * sin( alpha ) } = fraction{ 96 }{ 2 * sin 76° 24'2" } = 49.38 ; ;
