8-5 Law of Sines and Law of Cosines
You can use the Law of Sines to solve a triangle if you
are given
• two angle measures and any side length
(ASA or AAS) or
• two side lengths and a non-included angle measure
(SSA).

Example 2A: Using the Law of Sines
Find the measure. Round lengths
to the nearest tenth and angle
measures to the nearest degree.
FG
Law of Sines
Substitute the given values.
FG sin 39° = 40 sin
32°

Find the measure. Round lengths
to the nearest tenth and angle
measures to the nearest degree.
mQ
Law of Sines
Substitute the given
values.

8-5 Law of Sines and Law of Cosines
The Law of Sines cannot be used to solve every
triangle. If you know two side lengths and the
included angle measure or if you know all three side
lengths, you cannot use the Law of Sines. Instead,
you can apply the Law of Cosines.

Example 3A: Using the Law of Cosines
Find the measure. Round
lengths to the nearest tenth
and angle measures to the
nearest degree.

given values.
XZ2  2843.2423
XZ  53.3

Simplify.
Find the square
root of both
sides.

Example 3B: Using the Law of Cosines
Find the measure. Round lengths
to the nearest tenth and angle
measures to the nearest degree.
mT
RS2 = RT2 + ST2 – 2(RT)(ST)cos T
72 = 132 + 112 – 2(13)(11)cos T
49 = 290 – 286 cosT
–241 = –286 cosT

Law of Cosines
Substitute the
given values.
Simplify.
Subtract 290
both sides.
