About Law of sines calculator

The law of sines states that each side over the sine of its opposite angle is constant.

Provide side a with angle A, then either side b or angle B.

When SSA data allow two triangles, both candidate angles are listed.

How to use it

  1. 1Enter side a and angle A in degrees.
  2. 2Add either side b or angle B.
  3. 3Calculate the unknown and the ratio a/sin(A).

Frequently asked questions

Ambiguous SSA?
Two sides and a non-included angle can yield zero, one, or two triangles.
Angle unit?
Degrees between 0 and 180 exclusive.
