How to find angle of a triangle using sine rule

Let's find angle Y using sine rule,

Hence,

x / sin X = y / sin Y

where

  • x = 8.5 cm
  • y = 8.6 cm
  • ∠X = 100°

8.5 / sin 100° = 8.6 / sin Y

cross multiply

8.5 sin Y = 8.6 sin 100°

sin Y = 8.6 sin 100° / 8.5

sin Y = 8.4693466759 / 8.5

Y = sin ⁻¹ 0.99639372657

Y = 85.1325941735

∠Y = 85.1°
