Sine Rule

 

Students learn to derive and apply the Sine rule to find the missing angle in triangular shapes.

Later, as learning progresses, they are challenged to apply additional properties associated with triangles to solve more complex problems.

Differentiated Learning Objectives
  • All students should be able to identify the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle as the longest side.
  • Most students should be able to calculate the hypotenuse length in a right-angled triangle.
  • Some students should be able to calculate the hypotenuse length in an isosceles triangle when given its base and perpendicular height.
