How do you use the Law of Cosines in addition to the Law of Sines to calculate the other two angles and a side of a non-right triangle when only the two remaining sides of the triangle and the third angle are given?

Resisting the "Slaughter mankind" urge is quite hard, I'll admit, but you see, at this point, I've replaced it with "Mock mankind mercilessly".

Ah, but it's a trick question, for you do not necessarily use a cosine! Observe:

Known information:
angle3 = 45
side1 = 5
side2 = 16

angle1 = atan(side1/side2);

angle1 is 17.354024636261322008610845518853 degrees

angle2 = 180 - angle1 - angle3

angle2 is 117.64597536373867799138915448115 degrees

side3 = sin(angle3)*side2

side3 is 11.313708498984760390413509793678

Thanks! Now I can do my Trig homework. ^_^

(Actually, we haven't gone over using tangents to solve triangles yet, but it's always nice to be one step ahead.)

The atan() function is arctangent, not tangent.
