So I'm working my way through a grade ten academic math course and I make it to the sine law section. Then I come across this equation in one of the examples and I honestly don't understand what was done to line one to result in line two. The problem is solving for e using the sine law, basically a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC. In the example this line is stated:
54.0/sin44 = e/sin50
Then the following line states:
e = 54.0 sin50/sin44
I don't understand what was done in line one to get to line two. To me, to isolate "e" you would multiply both sides by "sin50" and result in:
e = 54.0/sin44 X sin50
Please explain to me how this works
54.0/sin44 = e/sin50
Then the following line states:
e = 54.0 sin50/sin44
I don't understand what was done in line one to get to line two. To me, to isolate "e" you would multiply both sides by "sin50" and result in:
e = 54.0/sin44 X sin50
Please explain to me how this works
